Polite Speech Habitus as a Socio-cultural regulator of the Social Network II: definition of the Communication Security Axiom
2018
Abstract
Speech politeness is one of the characteristics of the formula of human speech behaviour, based on the structural aspects of language, anthropology, sociology and pragmatics, and acts as a speech mechanism acquired by speakers at a specific time and in a particular politically and ethnically defined territory. We will attempt to summarize the mentioned findings in a well-arranged plan, which, although in some aspects allows for a simplified but internally structured insight into the functioning of speech courtesy as a cultural artefact, has given preference through the development of the social construct to certain social values over others.
