AGUILAR PENA, Paula. Verbal politeness strategies deployed in semiconducted debates among youth and senior citizens in Santiago de Chile. Leng. [online]. 2015, vol.43, n.1, pp.111-136. ISSN 0120-3479.

The purpose of this work is to perform, from a pragmalinguistics perspective, a description of the verbal politeness strategies employed in coloquial and semiconducted debates among a group of speakers of the Spanish of Santiago de Chile belonging to two different age groups: young people and senior citizens. Generally speaking, the results evidence differences in the verbal politeness strategies employed by the two groups in the communicative context of an exchange of ideas. Senior citizens employed a wider variety of strategies of positive politeness; young people, a wider variety of grammatical formalizations that allowed them to reduce impact throughout the argumentative process

Palabras clave : linguistic politeness; discourse analysis; pragmatics; discourse; discoursive strategies.
