| Citazioni | This succession of events could be studied in many ways, but we, who are studying language, will naturally distinguish between the act of speech and the other occurrences, which we shall call 'practical events'. [...] practical events preceding the act of speech. [...] practical events following the act of speech. The practical events which follow the speech and concern the hearer, we call the 'hearer's response'. |
