THE EFFECT OF ILLOCUTIONARY SPEECH ACTS IN AXIOLOGICAL LINGUISTICS IN ENGLISH

This article investigates the effect of illocutionary speech acts in axiological linguistics in English, examining how values are constructed, communicated, and institutionalized through discourse. Drawing on classical and contemporary speech act theory (Austin, 1962; Searle, 1969) and axiological linguistics (Wierzbicka, 1991, 2006; Bednarek, 2006; Martin & White, 2005), the study integrates theoretical analysis with illustrative examples from religious, legal, and political discourse. Findings reveal that illocutionary force serves as a core mechanism for encoding moral judgments, ideological positioning, and value hierarchies. By unifying pragmatic and axiological perspectives, the study provides insights for discourse analysis, evaluative semantics, translation studies, and applied linguistics.
