KAWAGUCHI, Masamichi. SOME STRATEGIES TO EXPRESS POLITENESS IN WRITTEN REQUESTS IN PERUVIAN AND COLOMBIAN SPANISH. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2021, n.80, pp.275-298.  Epub 12-Dez-2022. ISSN 0120-5587.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n80a17.

In this paper, the strategies used by Peruvian and Colombian native speakers of Spanish to express politeness in written requests are described and compared. Also, in order to determine usage trends, it applies (i) politeness theory and (ii) interlanguage pragmatic methodology to the analysis of linguistic variety. The exploration of the messages produced by the participants for four fictitious situations revealed similarities and differences associated with both the relative power dynamics between sender and receiver, and the degree of imposition.

Palavras-chave : politeness; linguistic variation; pragmatics; written communication; teaching of Spanish.
