Question 1. Give 3 utterances including hedges and explain which Gricean Maxims the speakers violate in each utterance.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There were more or less 100 people at the theater.

In short, we broke up.

I assume he´s not coming.

Explanation:

The Hedges are in bold.

The Gricean Maxims are:

Maxim of Quantity: a contribution should be as informative as necessary for the exchange.

Maxim of quality: do not say what you believe to be false or something of which you lack adequate evidence.

Maxim of relation: provide only relevant information.

Maxim of manner: avoid vagueness and ambiguity, be brief and orderly.

The first two sentences infringe the Maxim of Quantity because the hedges reflect a lack of detail in the information provided, meaning that information necessary for the exchange is missing.

The third sentence infringes the Maxim of quality because an assumption is information based on no evidence.

What qualities does someone need to pursue greatness or success? Use evidence from at least three sources with proper in-text citations. Remember to include commentary and reasoning to support your evidence. Refer to our guide on Using MLA Style to Cite Your Sources to make sure you properly format your citations.

Answers

Answer: They need to believe in themselves

Explanation: If they believe in themselves, then success will come. Also honesty.

(I can’t answer the second part because there isn’t any sources)

Answer: One of the most important qualities you need to pursue greatness is passion for the field that you want to excel in. Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman is a truly great gymnast and an excellent example of why passion is so important. Even from a young age, she was so enthusiastic about the sport that she spent countless hours watching earlier Olympic games and memorizing the moves the gymnasts used (Raisman). Those who want to become renowned must put enormous effort into improving their skills, so it’s important that they are driven by true enthusiasm for the areas in which they work. Perseverance is also an important quality a person needs to succeed. After all, people “succeed through failure” by learning from their mistakes (Dunigan). Rather than giving up, they turn challenges into learning opportunities. Humility is another key element of greatness. Even President Abraham Lincoln, one of America’s most revered leaders, noted that he was not always in control as a leader (McClay). He admitted to his shortcomings and weaknesses, which allowed him to move on and grow from them.
