Deixis In Spanish: Pragmatic Role In The Organization Of Speech Space

This article examines the phenomenon of deixis in Spanish from a pragmatic perspective. Special attention is paid to its role in organizing speech space and ensuring mutual understanding between communication participants. The main types of deictic expressions are analyzed — personal, spatial, temporal, discursive and social deixis — and their functions in Spanish speech. The features of the Spanish deictic system are highlighted, including the three-member model of demonstrative pronouns (este – ese – aquel) and the culturally conditioned use of politeness forms. It is shown how deictic elements help structure discourse, direct the addressee's attention and express the speaker's subjective position. The work emphasizes the significance of deixis for effective communication and its influence on the cognitive perception of speech situations.
