The Deixis Research in the concept

Abstract

This research is concerned with studying one of the most important concepts in pragmatics, which, according to the classification that Hanson placed in his program, represents pragmatics of the first degree; because of its complexity, ambiguity and greatly dependence on context. This study is also concerned in presenting the concepts or conventions used by researchers as synonyms for the concept of deixis, with a brief presentation of the Arab differentiation presented by Arab scholars between implicates and signs. It also deals with showing the strong relationship between deixis and pragmatic efficiency, as well as the analysis of set of the pronouncements with ambiguous signs
