SPEECH ACTS
Andrew D. Cohen
 •SPEECH ACT
• Speech Act is a functional unit in
communication. (Austin’s theory 1962)
• Furthermore, to communicate is to express a
certain attitude, and the type of speech act
being performed corresponds to the type of
attitude being expressed. (Bach 1994)
• Asan act of communication, a speech act succeeds if the audience
identifies, in accordance with the speaker’s intention, the attitude
being expressed.

• Some speech acts, are not primarily acts of communication but of

affecting institutional states of affairs. (Bach 1994)
 •Austin’s Levels of Action

 1. Locutionary: Meaning, namely, the literal

meaning of the utterance.
 2. Illocutionary: Is related to the social function
that the utterance or the written text has.
 3. Perlocutionary: Is the result or effect that is
produced by the utterance in the given context.
  Suppose that a bartender utters the words: “The
bar will be closed in 5 min”.
1. Locutionary: Saying that the bar will be closed in 5
Act of saying
min.
2. Illocutionary: The act of informing the customers of
the bar’s imminent closing and perhaps also the act of
urging them to order a last drink. Function: Info-persuasion
3. Perlocutionary: The bartender intends to be
performing this act by causing the customers to believe
Final
orders! the bar is about to close, and of getting them to want
and to order one last drink. Effect

suggesting, asserting, or swearing that something is the case
• Directive: an illocutionary act for getting the addressee to do
something.
E.g. ordering, commanding, daring, defying, challenging
• Commissive: an illocutionary act for getting the speaker (i.e. the one
performing the speech act) to do something.
E.g. promising, threatening, intending, vowing to do or to refrain from
doing something
•Here is Searle's classification for types of illocutions:
• Expressive: an illocutionary act that expresses the mental
state of the speaker about an event presumed to be true..
E.g. congratulating, thanking, deploring, condoling,
welcoming, apologizing
• Declaration: an illocutionary act that brings into existence the
state of affairs to which it refers.
E.g. blessing, firing, baptizing, bidding, passing sentence,
