Description

This comprehensive volume examines how speakers of English and Spanish use linguistic mitigation to soften or downgrade the impact of their messages across various settings. The book explores theoretical foundations of mitigation drawing on politeness theory and pragmatic perspectives, whilst presenting cutting-edge research on native Spanish speakers, bilingual speakers, and learners of Spanish. By analysing the linguistic features employed for attenuation, this work builds on existing scholarship in English mitigation and extends understanding to Spanish-language contexts. The study synthesises conceptualisations from the literature and offers practical insights into how speakers strategically employ language to modify the force of their expressions in real-world communication scenarios.
