SOME PSEUDO-IMPERATIVES AND THEIR COMMUNICATIVE FUNCTION IN ENGLISH

In this article I consider some types of pseudo-imperatives, that is some imperative structures which do not have the usual functions associated with the imperative in English. I point out here two main criteria to distinguish sentences containing pseudo-imperatives from sentences containing real imperatives. The first criterion is based on the responses to them, the second is based on their 'deep structure sentenbes and mainly on the verbs of the 'deep structure sentences', from which I derive the intensions of the Speaker concerning the hearer and the act of which he is talking.*
