“…The data analysis first reveals that the impoliteness realizations, in marriage communication, are in general accordance with the widely acknowledged set of impoliteness (e.g., Bousfield, 2008;Garrido Ardila, 2019). This is accounted in the words of Terkourafi (2015), "conventionalization" in linguistic behaviors.…”

The issue of impoliteness has long been a matter of interest in linguistic investigations. Considerable research has been conducted to uncover factors and features regarding the realizations of impoliteness in multiple social contexts. This study engages in a pragmatic inquiry into impoliteness in the marital relationship. The data of this study consisted of a TV episode from one famous on-site mediation reality program in China. Primarily drawing on Bousfield’s (2008) model of impoliteness realizations, this study used a qualitative approach to examine the means by which the couple in a marital relationship causes face-attacking effects and ultimately arouses conflicts. The primary findings of this study indicate that couples might struggle with various communicative challenges. A problematic marital relationship tends to be signaled in some practices of impoliteness. This study has identified thirteen realizations of impoliteness linguistically and behaviorally that indicate gender variations concerning the couple’s frequent impoliteness practices.

“…In impoliteness studies, the rhetorical realizations of "condescend, scorn, ridicule" explicitly associate others with a negative aspect (Garrido Ardila, 2019). In this study, based on the couple's complaints, the pattern of 'condescend' was barely found in their marriage.…”

“…In Ardila's view, the communicator does not necessarily speak to the other person but to the whole nation. When it is indicated that his speech diction does not respect his speech opponent, it affects his self-image (Ardila 2019). Brown and Levinson emphasized that speakers must not let the other person have a negative face for disrespectful speech (Brown & Levinson, 1988;Wang, 2023).…”

“…This slogan was only one of the many examples that were made creatively. Impoliteness is often seen in the literature as a “rhetorical strategy” ( Ardila, 2019 ) or “discursive strategy” ( Ladegaard, 2012 ), since it is repeatedly used in a similar pattern to achieve an intended function. Similarly, the threatening language or impoliteness in the blunt slogans could have been a rhetorical strategy adopted by the government to optimize their effectiveness or fulfill the health prevention function, if viewed from the perspective of the creators of the blunt slogans.…”
