Speech Communication and Its Pragmatic Approach

Abstract

This article analyzes communication, its etymology, the uniqueness of speech communication, and the scientific basis of the pragmatic approach to it using excerpts from various texts. This research investigates the pragmatics of speech communication, focussing on the linguopragmatic approach to interpersonal interactions. The introduction emphasises the semantic and cultural intricacies involved in defining "communication" in English, Uzbek, and Russian languages. Although current work examines language and extralinguistic elements of communication, a need remains in comprehending how social and environmental variables affect communication results across countries. A qualitative examination of language interactions, illustrated with examples from Uzbek, Russian, and Western communication standards, was utilised to address this gap. The technique is a comparative analysis of communication behaviours in formal and informal contexts, focussing on elements such as speech actions, etiquette, and socio-pragmatic principles. Research indicates that communicative subtleties differ markedly based on age, gender, nationality, and social settings, highlighting the dynamic function of linguopragmatics in promoting efficient intercultural communication. Findings indicate that compliance with social standards and language decorum might reduce misconceptions in multilingual and multicultural interactions. The implications for linguistics and cross-cultural communication are significant, indicating that including linguopragmatic concepts in language instruction might improve individuals' flexibility and communicative skill in various cultural relationships. This research enhances the comprehension of language use, fostering better interpersonal and intercultural relationships.
