中国語の依頼表現に関する語用論的研究

要旨

By referencing three different scenes of face-threatening in Politeness Theory (Brown & Levinson, 1978), this study collects linguistic data related with friends (CN1) and senior students (CN2) from Chinese native speakers at Dalian University of Foreign Languages and analyzed them from the erspective of pragmatics. The results show that the politeness strategies of the requester in CN1 and CN2 are different from each other. When talking with seniors, requesters tend to use “courtesy” and thanks,” but when with friends, they usually do not use “thanks” and often use negative politeness strategies. With the increase of the difficulty of the request scenario, the differences between CN1 and CN2 are reduced. Furthermore, before the request behavior, the requester’s language preparation for “pleasantries,” “consideration,” and “pre-topic insertion” does not increase, but still focuses on “situation description,” “request,” and “auxiliary behavior.”
