内容摘要

随着言语行为理论的不断发展和完善，语言学家们对具体的言语行为如祝贺，恭维，拒绝以及道歉等的研究日益深入，并进行了不同语言之间的对比研究。然而，对抱怨言语行为的研究相对较少。抱怨语分为直接抱怨语和间接抱怨语，本文主要针对间接抱怨语的实施方式以及应答策略进行定性和定量的研究。本文以社会地位、社会距离以及说话人的期望值为变量，通过DCT的方式收集数据，对比分析了两组调查对象的间接抱怨实施方式，即：汉语母语使用者和英语母语使用者。结果表明汉英间接抱怨语表达策略以及应答策略存在异同。在实施间接抱怨时，汉语母语使用者和英语母语使用者都不同程度地受到社会地位、社会距离和说话人的期望值的影响，但是相比而言，汉语母语使用者对社会地位这一变量更敏感，而英语母语使用者对社会距离和说话人期望值更为敏感。作者通过具体语例，从文化的角度阐述了这些差异形成的原因。
