SYNTACTIC INCOMPLETENESS VS COMMUNICATIVE INNUENDO: TO THE PROBLEM OF TEXT AMBIGUITY RESOLUTION IN DIALOGIC COMMUNICATION DISCOURSE
The article deals with the methodological approach to the distinction between syntactic incompleteness and communicative innuendo in the dialogic texts of business correspondence as the way to text ambiguity resolution in forensic linguistics. Syntactic incompleteness is a reflection of some cognitive processes underlying the fragmentation of interaction discourse. Innuendo is here understood as the special type of speech act where important components of the meaning are skipped by the speaker. Special attention is paid to the time reference, the correlation between syntactic incompleteness and semantic completeness of the sentence in a situation, the information content of Question-Answer communication, the contextual meanings of communicative and syntactic text organization.
Keywords: forensic linguistics, text ambiguity, business correspondence, dialogic communication, syntactic incompleteness, communicative innuendo, communicative and syntactic organization of statement
