Psycholinguistic Descriptions and Their Relevance to Education: 111, A Pilot Study of Language Functions in Young Children

Vejleskov, Hans

Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 21, 1, 17-32, 77

On the basis of an analysis of several earlier classifications of language functions a three-dimensional classification is presented. It interprets the utterance in question in terms of 1) the speaker's intended influence on the listener, 2) the speaker's intentions and attitudes, and 3) the speaker's intentions with respect to the content of the message.
