- W96397316 abstract "Pragmatics is about language in use. It is concerned with the relationships betweenlinguistic forms and the users of those forms. In order to communicate successfully,language users should have pragmatics competence which is the ability to use languageforms suitably to sociocultural context. Consequently, language users need to acquirenot only linguistic rules but also sociolinguistic rules of language use to perform thespeech acts appropriately. Apology, among other speech acts, has received greatattention in pragmatics research as politeness is essential in human interaction. Thoughbeing polite is preferred universally, the connotation of politeness might differ acrossculture. In intercultural communication, lack of apology awareness, could lead tooffense or misunderstandings, both in producing the appropriate apology and perceivingthe intended meaning from other speakers. This study is aimed at examining crossculturalpragmatics by focusing on apologies in Thai and English and investigating theproduction of interlanguage apologies of Thai EFL (English as a Foreign Language)learners in terms of different sociolinguistic variables. The study focussed on two mainaspects: a Discourse Completion Task (DCT) and qualitative data from an interview.Previous studies were analyzed and contrasted to find the similarities and differences ofapologies in Thai and English as the native Thai speakers and native English speakers’pragmatic norms. The quantitative eliciting data was collected through a DCTquestionnaire from 160 Thai undergraduate students of various disciplines at auniversity in Thailand while the qualitative data was gathered from an individualinterview with nine of the original 160 students in order to find the apology strategiesuse and the views toward significance of apology and apology teaching in languagelearning. The contrastive findings showed that there are more strategies for apologizingin English than in Thai. Also, universality and culture-specificity co-exist in the act ofapologizing in Thai and English. The interlanguage data revealed the influence ofsociolinguistic factors: social distance, social status and severity of offense." @default.
