Description

What are we actually saying when we say some words and phrases out loud? And what do we expect to happen when we say them? And, most importantly, how does misunderstanding happens when we seemingly say simple things to each other?




In this episode I talk about the Speech act theory by John Austin. Exciting stuff! :)
