Conversational Implicature

2022
Το συνομιλιακό υπονοήμα είναι (χονδρικά) η πρακτική της μετάδοσης ενός νοήματος λέγοντας κάτι άλλο. Στη φιλοσοφική και γλωσσική μελέτη πάνω στο θέμα κυριαρχεί η προσέγγιση που προτείνει ο Paul Grice – το Gricean πλαίσιο, όπως το αποκαλώ - σύμφωνα με το οποίο τα υπονοήματα μπορούν να υπολογιστούν από τις αρχές της συνεργατικής συμπεριφοράς.

Conversational Implicatures and Cancellability

Acta Analytica, 2009
In this paper I argue against a criticism by Matthew Weiner to Grice’s thesis that cancellability is a necessary condition for conversational implicature.

Conversational Implicatures of Normative Discourse

2019
Grice (1967) formulated his famous maxims having mainly in mind the assertive discourse, i.e. a discourse which aims to inform, and can be true or false. However, as it is well known, norms do not aim to inform: they aim to guide behaviours, and, therefore, they are neither true nor false.

The Semantic Reading and Conversational Implicature

1996
The pragmatic notion of conversational implicature is in an important respect similar to the notion of deixis, in the sense that the notion is motivated by features of language use for which the traditional semantic techniques cannot account. The problem is that the uses of linguistic expressions often convey more information than is expressed by their
