##article.abstract##

Politeness is a fundamental aspect of pragmatics, influencing how individuals navigate social interactions and maintain harmonious communication. This article examines key theories of politeness, including Geoffrey Leech's Politeness Principle and Brown and Levinson's Face Theory, with a particular focus on the concept of positive face. Understanding positive face and its associated politeness strategies is essential for effective intercultural communication and for preventing misunderstandings.
