概要

論文の詳細を見る
This study examines politeness strategies, in relation to gender roles, in mail communications by cellular phones among female university students. We analyzed 80 randomly-chosen mails and 10 interview protocols, in the framework of positive/negative politeness (Brown & Levinson, 1987). It is shown that the students used more and a variety of polite and feminine expressions, in the mail sent to women, than we expected. It is also revealed that they used various politeness strategies to entertain the female addressee and animate the communication. We argue that feminine expressions survive and proliferate in the girls' mails, in contrast with neutralization in face-to-face communications.
