2021, Journal of PragmaticsCitation Excerpt :Specifically, one can mitigate face-threatening acts, if unavoidable, through positive politeness or negative politeness (also known as positive face-work and negative face-work), which can be performed with various linguistic strategies. Despite some criticism about the apparent lack of universality (e.g. Gu, 1990; Matsumoto, 1988), this model has been applied to investigate face-work in a rich array of settings across cultures; a large number of research articles have been published in this journal (e.g. De Kadt, 1998; Ruzickova, 2007). Face-work is analyzed in terms not only of acts of politeness, but increasingly also of those of impoliteness (e.g. Culpeper, 2011; Dynel, 2013).
