DEIXIS AND CONTEXT: HOW DEICTIC WORDS SHAPE INTERPRETATION IN ENGLISH

Аннотация

Abstract: This article explores the role of deictic expressions in English communication and their reliance on context for accurate understanding. While face-to-face interactions provide physical cues and body language to clarify meaning, digital communication presents challenges because it lacks context. The study also explores the evolution of deixis in digital discourse, particularly in social media and messaging platforms.
