冗談関係に見られる擬似インポライトネス – バラエティー番組のつっこみ文脈と対称詞選択に注目して –

Abstract

This study focused on the context of Tsukkomi, which can be characterized in Japanese as a mock impoliteness that can be seen in joking relationships. The differences between the Japanese address terms that can be seen in Tsukkomi were also considered. Tsukkomi in everyday life pointed out that there is for unexpected sequence after a certain utterance, and there is for conversation content that impoliteness to oneself or deviates from general common sense or norms. In addition, based on Tsukkomi’s judgment, 1) the speaker has a confrontational stance on the structure or content of the listener’s conversation, 2) The speaker himself, the listener, or the people around them laughed according to the speaker’s speech acts. The speaker selected the most suitable address terms for each Tsukkomi context as a result of analyzing the selection of the context and address terms found in Japanese variety programs, and when the speaker emotionally did Tsukkiomi, a rather violent form such as “omae” and “omee” or its plural form could be seen. Although it is difficult to say that Japanese address terms itself has a semantic function as an impoliteness or a Tsukkomi, it is a linguistic means to effectively convey such context, and the most appropriate form is chosen.
