Pragmatic Interpretation of Significant Silence

 
ABSTRACT

Significant silence has its abundant and profound implicature in conversation. The meaning and interpretation of significant silence are vague and multidimensional. Focusing on the phenomenon of significant silence in English conversational discourse, this paper, in the light of Relevance Theory (Sperber&Wilson,1986), illustrates the pragmatic meaning of significant silence from cognitive linguistics, including: (1) informative & communicative intention of significant silence; (2) relevance and contextual effect of significant silence on the basis of the self-inefficiency of Conversational Analysis Theory and Grice’s Cooperative Principle in interpreting significant silence. Finally, it emphasizes that an effective interpretation of significant silence in conversation needs a complementary cooperation between pragmatics and other related disciplinaries under the overall guidance of Relevance Theory.

Key words: significant silence；pragmatics；Relevance Theory
