RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 The Implicit Interpersonal Meaning of Linguistic Items A1 Luzón Marco, María José AB The meaning of linguistic items may include an interpersonal orevaluative component which derives from its typical use. This papersupports the view that words cannot be defined only in terms of denotation,since that would imply neglecting the interpersonal function oflanguage. The phraseology of an item (i.e. its typical lexico-syntacticenvironment) may confer an implicit meaning to this item. Additionally,the typical discourse function of an item also contributes to its meaning.This paper explores the concept of implicit meaning and looks at differenttypes of implications and presuppositions that an item may convey.
