From Utterances to Speech Acts

By Mikhail Kissine

"Kissine offers a new theory of speech acts which is philosophically sophisticated and builds on work in cognitive science, formal semantics, and linguistic typology. This highly readable, brilliant essay is a major contribution to the field."

--François Recanati, Institut Jean-Nicod

Query:   Hello everybody,

I vaguely remember reading about experimental studies in which people were asked to retell the same story several times, and became more fluent on each retelling (and also tended to make the same lexical choices), but cannot locate any published work on this. Can anyone help?

Please reply to e.dabrowska@shef.ac.uk
