ABOUT THE PARAMETERS OF THE SPEECH ACT OF POSSIBLE CONSENT
The linguistic paradigm focused on language as an activity manifests itself in acts of speech and distinguishes cognitive, pragmatic and communicative plan. Modern scientific research focuses on various aspects of linguistic subjectivity, among which the modality of consent occupies a special place in the speech system. For structuring language elements, it is important to study the functioning of basic lexical means with the meaning of agreement, determine the range of their status, clarify their conventions and semantic dynamism. The article deals with statements with the meaning of possible consent, which play an important role in organizing speech interaction, in structuring the content world of a person. The reaction of possible consent is in the context of active manifestations of the communicant's actions. The study has actualized nuclear lexical units 'can', 'may' and 'agree' which express the semantics of possible agreement in the process of communication; it has identified additional language means that represent different new meanings, revise the model of the position of the addressee, and also intensificate or deintensificate the degree of its manifestation within the communicative norms; it has been noted that the modified features are associated with the details of treating the picture of the world which is based on certain types of knowledge; the attention has been focused on the position that a speech act of a possible agreement is the fact of critical understanding of the situation, a rational representation of the context, it is under the control of the speaker and at the same time, it is conditioned by some factors, creates a general background of tension and starts to express the signs of uncertainty and something non-categorical. The results of the study indicate that the speech act of possible consent has specific semantic and, accordingly, structural parameters that are associated with a change in the speaker's attitude to the declared state of affairs in different communication situations and with the use of adequate expressive means that concretize the perception of the realities of the world picture, help to understand the nature of speech behavior, build cooperative communicative interactions of participants.
