Abstract

This paper aims to discuss the concept of politeness from an interactional perspective, using, as a basis for reflection, data from two academic genres, chat lessons and discussion lists. Opposing to the common posture derived from seminal works on the theme, we postulate that the analysis should not be limited to the utterance level. It should consider the behavior of those who are interacting, i.e. it isn’t the utterance that is (im)polite, but the people who interpret the utterances as having differing degrees of politeness. This means that it is vital to try to identify the factors that influence the dynamic perceptions of the interlocutors about the phenomenon
