Ex [15]: X: […] or but we’re talking about a constant policy against the against a policy which leads to a The intended effect is that of the interlocutor’s conviction regarding the seriousness of the situation in the education system caused by faulty governing. b) The high voice can be the expression of concession when it is used with the imperative let’s in the context of reaching an agreement. Ex [16]: Y: yes. we do like this The effect is that of calming down the interlocutor in order to reach a mutually advantageous agreement. c) Being forced to face his sister, who came to convince him not to jump from a building, the speaker uses the high voice in order to express irritation. The expected effect is that of the interlocutor’s intimidation. Ex [17]: X: get out of here 2.2. Low voice a) From a stylistic point of view, the low voice can express surprise. Ex [18]: Y: I’m sorry but = X: = come on who’s obeying rules the rules nowadays? come on you’d better say how much it costs ++ Y: ++ ++ The idea of rules, or orders that the speaker invokes in the argumentation of his refusal is minimized by the interlocutor. Through the first interjection come on, continued with a rhetoric question, he emphasizes the generalization of the attitude. Through the second interjection come on X addresses a request that intends to initiate a negotiation. b) The interlocutor’s excuse referring to the misunderstanding of a possible question from the speaker gets an answer from the latter through which he expresses the disagreement by using a low voice. Ex [19]: Y: good evening Mr. X X: good evening Mr. Y Y: first of all I’m sorry but I couldn’t hear the answer and the question you asked anyway [in this context X: c) The use of the personal example as a persuasion strategy intends to make the interlocutor aware of the reality and gravity of his intentions; through the negative answer to the speaker’s (rhetorical) question, uttered in a low voice, the interlocutor verbalizes his feeling, that of shame. Ex [20]: Z: you don’t trust your sister I’m ill do you want me to die? X: d) The low voice can be the expression of the speaker’s surprise when he has to face a direct attack from the interlocutor. Ex [21]: X: […] we have a problem with 51
Y: ok 3. Intensity 3.1. Powerful intensity As a stylistic marker, the powerful intensity can suggest: a) The speaker’s trust in his own opinion Ex [22]: X: Mrs. Z you can’t be entitled to such a thing The verb to think is uttered with a powerful intensity. Thus, the speaker assumes the subjectivity of his opinion through a directive illocutionary act. b) The speaker’s conviction regarding the arguments presented Ex [23]: Y: = that if there are any wounds this means they are otherwise they wouldn’t have been WOUNDS The speaker utters with powerful intensity the adjective old, considered to be the logical argument in supporting the personal point of view. 3.2. Weak intensity a) The weak intensity of voice, accompanying the indefinite one can see, becomes the expression of distrust when it constitutes an answer to an implicit order masked by a question, followed by an interdiction and a new order, explicit this time, formulated with the help of the imperative: Ex [24]: X: = are you listening to me? you can’t be entitled. stop [saying = Z: = but b) The weak intensity can suggest the hesitation regarding the acceptance of the arguments presented, hesitation which also results from the use of the adversative but immediately after a presupposed acceptance of the interlocutor’s opinion. Ex [25]: Y: = that if there are any wounds this means they are otherwise they wouldn’t have been WOUNDS Z: c) When the interlocutor’s idea is repeated under the form of an interrogative sentence, the weak intensity accompanies an element about which the speaker asks further information. Ex [26]: Y: OF COURSE you give me arguments + in order ++ you want FIVE NIGHTS instead of THREE X: instead of FOUR Y: instead of ? did we say FOUR from the very beginning? 4. Emphatic accent The emphatic accent can affect a word or two and can coincide with powerful intensity, but this is not compulsory. Ex [27]: Z: I was asking you about the percentage. it was an question The emphatic accent can be used with an argumentative function when the speaker emphasizes the elements which underline his needs and which will constitute the starting point for negotiation: Ex [28]: X: […] I’m going to open a new FIRM which will have as shareholders two persons a Romanian, myself, and an Italian. at this moment, in order to start the working, we need SPACE and MACHINES and we have money just for ONE of the two. The emphatic accent can appear in repetitions, to underline the desire for cooperation: 52
