B03 investigates how non-literal meaning emerges in indirectness within discourse. We examine indirect speech acts based on interrogatives and indirectness in question-response sequences (e.g. in interviews), adopting a cross-linguistic perspective including German, English and Japanese. Using various empirical sources, such as grammatical descriptions, experiments and corpus studies, we look at how formal syntactic factors (clause types) and the structure of discourse (questions-under-discussion) contribute to indirectness, which mechanisms allow for enrichment of conventional interpretation, and which contexts facilitate or limit such creative interpretation.

B03研究了非字面意义是如何在语篇中的间接性中出现的。我们采用跨语言的视角(包括德语、英语和日语)来考察问答序列中的疑问句和间接性的间接言语行为。通过使用不同的经验来源，如语法描述、实验和语料库研究，我们考察了形式句法因素(从句类型)和语篇结构(讨论中的问题)是如何导致间接性的，哪些机制允许丰富传统的解释，以及哪些语境促进或限制了这种创造性的解释。
