Abstract
The research focuses on the semantic, grammatical and pragmatic characteristics of the directive speech acts, on their functioning in the communicative process, and on the main forms of their realization in the contemporary english language. In modern linguistics much attention is paid to learning the notion of the speech act and its role in making communication successful. Due to the act of speech the language utterance acquires the communicative meaning. The contemporary use of the term goes back to J.L.austin’s development of performative utterances and his theory of locutionary, illocutionary and perlocutionary acts. Thus, the act is considered to be the performance of several acts at once, distinguished by different aspects of the speaker’s intention: there is the act of saying something, what one does in saying it, such as request, advice, order or promise, and how one is trying to affect the audience. In our research we focus on the analysis of the directive speech acts of request, advice and order, and on the examples of the contemporary english language show some of the ways of their usage for reaching the desirable communicative purpose.
