Include some examples of the beginnings of telephone conversations showing different possible solutions and developments.

Yun-Pi Yuan 4 Q3: Define politeness and face. How are they related to language forms? Discuss the results of Nash (1983). Give examples of other situations which support or counter the conclusions of that study.

Yun-Pi Yuan 5 Q4: Is there any relationship between the sound system of a language and other parts of its grammar, such as syntax, vocabulary, word forms and word classes, and semantics? Give examples in which some aspect of sound interacts with another part of grammar.

Yun-Pi Yuan 6 Q5: To speak a language what do you think you have to know (unconsciously) about its sounds and sound system? List as many things as you can, and explain why you need to know them.

Yun-Pi Yuan 7 Q6: How are the sounds and sound system of a language important in its literature? Give examples in English and Chinese (or any other language). (List as many things as you can, and explain why you need to know them.)

Yun-Pi Yuan 8 Q7: Why is it hard to respond when someone compliments you? Why do people give compliments? Why do they most commonly compliment? What principle about language do compliments exemplify? An utterance is a complex of actions. What we say and how we say it is determined socially.
