1. What is meant by speech act? Speech act is actions performed via utterances.

Speech acts can be analysed on three levels:

1.

A locutionary act, the performance of an utterance: the actual utterance and

its ostensible meaning, comprising phonetic, phatic and rhetic acts corresponding
to the verbal, syntactic and semantic aspects of any meaningful utterance;
2.
an illocutionary act: the pragmatic 'illocutionary force' of the utterance, thus
its intended significance as a socially valid verbal action (see below);
3.

and in certain cases a further perlocutionary act: its actual effect, such as

persuading, convincing, scaring, enlightening, inspiring, or otherwise getting

someone to do or realize something, whether intended or not (Austin 19)
