摘要在奥斯丁言语行为理论的基础上，塞尔于1975年提出了间接言语行为理论。间接言语行为理论可以简单地定义为:在交际中，说话人并不是直截了当地说出自己的意图, 而是换一种说法 拐弯抹角地表达自己的真实意思。礼貌交际，是一种存在于人类社会的普遍现象，并由利奇提出了礼貌原则。因此，本文将具体分析间接言语行为和礼貌的关系及使用间接言语达成礼貌交际的影响因素，并最终进一步提出建设性的使用间接言语达成礼貌交际的有效方法，以帮助人们建立融洽的人际关系，并达成礼貌交际。83881

Abstract On the basis of Austen's speech act theory, Searle put forward the theory of indirect speech act in 1975。 Indirect speech acts can be simply defined as: in communication, speakers usually say something indirectly rather than directly to express their true intentions。 Politeness, as another important theory, is also a very universal phenomenon in our communication。 And a famous linguists Leech has come up with “politeness principle”。 Therefore, this paper will analyze the relationship between indirect speech act and politeness and the factors affecting the realization of politeness through indirect speech acts, and finally propose some effective approaches to apply indirect speech acts to achieve politeness, in order to help people establish harmonious interpersonal relationships and achieve politeness in communication。
