Diagrams of taxonomy of speech acts - Appendix 1
Ito Hisa
Terms and definitions are taken from Bach and Harnish 1979.
a) Communicative illocutionary acts1
These "are acts of expressing attitudes" (1979:116). To express an attitude means for speaker to R(reflexive)-intend the hearer to take speaker's utterance as reason to believe that the speaker has the attitude (1979:15, 57).
b) Conventional illocutionary acts
These speech acts "effect changes in institutional states of affairs" (1979:110). They "are identified by the speaker's utterance and the conditions of utterance, with R-intention unnecessary" (1979:118). "A convention is a mutually recognized means for doing something, counting as such only because mutually recognized" (1979:109).
