Abstract:
Puzzles of linguistic politeness and impoliteness are outlined.
A framework for articulating formal semantic theories of linguistic politeness
and impoliteness is adopted. The framework provides a foundation
for a semantic theory that builds on past argument that (im)politeness
behaviors arise from offence management associated with disgust. The
theory is shown to explain some of the puzzles of (im)politeness.
