The East/West Debate over Politeness
There has been a debate about whether East and West are different or similar in pragmatics. In this discussion note, I demonstrate that both views stemmed from a similar one-sidedness, namely scholars’ assertion of cultural norms based on ideology rather than actual practice. I discuss the gap between ideology and practice by reviewing recent studies in Japanese that examined actual practice by drawing on naturally occurring data. To better appro…

Referential and non-referential (im)politeness
Honorifics are non-referential indices that are generally understood as polite linguistic forms. Why do speakers use honorifics when they express a face-attacking referential message? Brown and Levinson’s politeness theory (1987) explains that the use of honorifics is a negative politeness strategy that mitigates an FTA (face-threatening act). However, the reason why honorifics co-occur with a face-attack probably involves more than mitigating an…

A scientist or salesman? Identity construction through referent honorifics on a Japanese shopping channel program
This paper explores how referent honorifics contribute to identity construction on a Japanese TV shopping channel program. Drawing on Ochs' two-step model of indexicality (1993, 1996) and Agah's proposal (1993) that honorifics are not directly linked to social status but index a 'relative position within events of discursive interaction' (p. 134), this paper first proposes that the direct index of the Japanese referent honorifics is the act of el…

Negotiating linguistic politeness in Japanese interaction
Japanese politeness as an interactional achievement
From a social constructionist perspective, this paper examines speech-style shifts in academic consultation sessions between professors and students in Japanese universities and demonstrates that politeness is an interactional achievement. It has been argued that politeness in Japanese society is predominantly ‘discernment ( wakimae )’, which differs from ‘volition (i. e., strategic politeness based on face needs)’ as proposed by Brown and Levins…

Situational Meanings of Japanese Social Deixis
This article explores indexical relations between honorific forms and their situational meanings by examining the Japanese addressee honorific masu form and its nonhonorific counterpart, the plain form. Arguing against a simple view of these forms as speech-level markers, the article proposes that both addressee-deference and speaker-focused self-presentation are indexical values of the masu form; the plain form is associated with an absence of t…

Japanese language socialization
From the perspective of language socialization, this article examines the use of addressee honorifics (the masu form) and their nonhonorific counterpart (the plain form) at home and in classroom interactions in elementary schools in Japan. Unlike the usual assumption that these forms are polite or nonpolite speech markers, this study finds that both at home and school the masu and plain forms are used as indexes of the modes of self, namely, “dis…
The role of the Japanese sentence-final particle no in the socialization of children
An indexical account of the Japanese sentence‐final particle no
Linguistic features which signal social contexts have been referred to as indexicals (Jakobson, 1960; Lyons, 1977; Morris, 1946; Ochs, 1989; Peirce, 1931–58; Silverstein, 1976). Typically, indexicals index diverse contexts. However, we still do not know much about the complex relations between a particular linguistic feature and the diverse contexts indexed by that feature. This article discusses one such indexical in Japanese: the sentence‐final…
