Аннотация

Эффективная коммуникация требует осмысления лингвокультурных аспектов ситуаций, зависящих от контекста. К ним относятся культурно и лингвистически обусловленные ситуации, в которых студенты хотят высказать преподавателю недовольство оценкой и попросить ее исправить. Чтобы снизить негативное воздействие таких речевых актов, студенты могут прибегать к комплиментам, использование которых имеет культурную специфику. В данном исследовании рассматривается отношение 146 студентов бакалавриата университетов ОАЭ к использованию комплиментов перед обсуждением оценки с преподавателем из другой лингвокультуры, когда языком преподавания является английский. Данные были собраны на основе опроса и задания на завершение дискурса. Полученные результаты показывают, что 49% студентов считают полезным использование комплимента перед обсуждением оценки и просьбой о ее изменении. Студенты прежде всего высказывали похвалу умению преподавать и усилиям преподавателя. Синтаксическая структура комплимента по большей части была представлена формулой You+V+NP. Результаты подчеркивают значимость учета лингвокультурных особенностей собеседника и потенциального воздействия скрытых мотивов при принятии решения об использовании комплимента, а также выбора темы с учетом кросс-культурных особенностей ситуации и социального статуса собеседников.
