2.1 Foreign Study 2.1 国外留学

Apology is a very common linguistic phenomenon in polite language behavior. Therefore, many domestic and foreign scholars have conducted research on apology speech act in different aspects. Austin,(1962) pointed out Fhow to Do Things with Wothlat speech itself is an action, while Searlle76) discussed twelve distinct dimensions of action behavior basec Austin's work. He classified apology speech act as expressive speech acts. Goffman, E (1971 categorizes apology speech acts as remedial speech acts, in which the offer remedy unpleasant social interactions through apology. Based on Austin's theory, Searle studied the issue of distinguishing dimensions in behavioral behavior and believed that apology speech act should belong to expressive speech acts. Coffman believes that "the act of apologizing is a remedial action taken by the offender to make up for their mistake. However, action does not mean that apologizing can effectively repair the rela appropriate methods and means, namely apology strategies." According to Cohen and Olshtain
道歉是礼貌语言行为中非常常见的语言现象。因此,国内外许多学者从不同方面对道歉言论行为进行了研究。Austin(1962)指出,用Wothlat言语做事本身就是一种行动,而Searlle76)则讨论了行动行为的12个不同维度。他将道歉言语行为归类为表达性言语行为。Goffman, E(1971)将道歉言语行为归类为补救性言语行为,其中通过道歉来补救不愉快的社交互动。基于奥斯汀的理论,塞尔研究了行为行为的维度区分问题,认为道歉言语行为应该属于表达性言语行为。科夫曼认为,“道歉的行为是犯罪者为弥补错误而采取的补救措施。然而, 行动并不意味着道歉可以有效地修复适当的方法和手段,即道歉策略。根据 Cohen 和 Olshtain 的说法

responsibility, maintaining restraint, explaining reasons, and providing Kulka(1984) believes that apologies can be divided into two categories: direct apol using various means to implement apology behaviors.
责任、保持克制、解释理由、提供 Kulka(1984)认为,道歉可以分为两类:直接道歉使用各种手段实施道歉行为。
However, there is little research on the speech act of apology in Englis based on the TV draReassearch Fniendsas also been conducted in various aspec including analyzing the humorous expressioemsd and analyzing the characters in the drama. However, there is relatively little research on Ipartments, as an anonymous writer (2014) mentioned in a news journal.
然而,在英格利斯的道歉语言行为中,基于电视剧的研究很少,在各种方面也进行了研究,包括分析幽默的表达和分析戏剧中的人物。然而,正如一位匿名作家(2014)在新闻期刊上提到的那样,对Ipartments的研究相对较少。

Qi Jiating (2018) pointed out in a comparison of apology speech act use strategies between English and Chinese that cognitive and cultural differences have a significant impact on the choic apology strategies between English and Chinese. In A Study on Pragmatic Transfer in the Use of Apologizing Language by Chinese English Learn&rong Junying(2016) conducted a detailed study on pragmatic transfer in direct apology speech act from the perspectives of illocutionary behavior and sociolinguistic factors.

This study aims to explore useful insights and suggestions for foreign langu communicators by analyzing pragmatic phenomena in English and Chinese apology speech act from the perspectives of the cooperative principle and politeness principle.
从跨文化的角度出发,从中英道歉行为的语境特征以及中英文道歉行为的语言形式分析了影响不同层次道歉差异的原因,并提出了跨文化融合的建议。齐家婷(2018)在对中英道歉言语行为使用策略的比较中指出,认知和文化差异对中英文的道歉策略有显著影响。荣俊英(2016)在《汉语道歉语言运用中的语用迁移研究》中,从言语行为和社会语言学因素的角度,对直接道歉言语行为中的语用迁移进行了详细研究。她探讨了汉语学习者使用直接道歉言语行为中的具体手法迁移,并探讨了性别和第二语言能力对语用迁移的影响。本研究旨在从合作原则和礼貌原则的角度,对中英道歉言语行为中的语用现象进行分析,为外国语言传播者提供有益的见解和建议。

Therefor differences are the main reason for the differences in apology, and we should pay attention cultural differences.
Friendsand Ipartment认为,文化原因和社会语言也会对道歉产生影响;韩英杰(2024)提到,“由于文化差异,道歉言语行为和道歉策略的使用可能存在异同。因此,差异是道歉差异的主要原因,我们应该注意文化差异。
We can see that there is relatively more research on apology speech act in both cultures, but we can still find that there is less research on apology speech act between English and Chinese cultures abroad, and how to improve cross-cultural communication through effective apology is still worth our attention.
我们可以看到,两种文化中对道歉言语行为的研究相对较多,但我们仍然可以发现,国外对中英文化之间的道歉言语行为的研究较少,如何通过有效的道歉来改善跨文化交际仍然值得我们关注。

3.2.2 Requesting Forgiveness
3.2.2 请求宽恕

In English culture, direct apologies are the most important, and in order to further request forgiveness from the other party, they usually use I beg your part "Please give me", "I'm sorry to have caused you any inconvenience", "I apologize for any mistake apologize for my behavior", "I hope you can find At the same time, make sure that your voice, facial expressions, and body langua sincerity and regret, so that the other person can feel your apology and the determ correct the mistake.

From the above definition of apology, people place mor characteristics and emotional factors when apologizing, often feeling the need to apologize due to guilt in Chinese culture. Apologies arise from within and are expressed externally, function of apologies is mostly to express a feeling in the speaker's heart. On Western scholars pay more attention to the function and purpose of apology. People in English speaking countries often use apology as a means of etiquette communication, not focusing their own feelings, but rather on the external form of apology. This is the most direct factor that leads to the inconsistency in the expression of apologies betn The other factors that exist among them are also worth further research.
从上面对道歉的定义来看,人们在道歉时会放置一些特征和情感因素,在中国文化中,往往会因为内疚而感到需要道歉。道歉源于内部,向外表达,道歉的功能主要是表达说话者内心的一种感受。西方学者更关注道歉的功能和目的。英语国家的人经常把道歉作为一种礼仪沟通的手段,不是把自己的感受放在外在的道歉上。这是导致道歉表达不一致的最直接因素,其中存在的其他因素也值得进一步研究。

Friends 朋友

Ipartment and Friends, as two beloved sitcoms, have also received much attention for their apologies. The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the differences in the speech act of apology betwelqurtmen(Season 5) anfriend (Season 5), and explore the numerous factors behind them. The apology motivation infartment is more related to external situations,
《Ipartment》和《老友记》作为两部深受喜爱的情景喜剧,也因道歉而受到广泛关注。本研究的目的是比较和分析道歉(第5季)和朋友(第5季)之间的言语行为差异,并探讨其背后的众多因素。道歉动机的灌输更多地与外部情况有关,

4.1 Differences in the Needs of Apology
4.1 道歉需求的差异

There are many reasons for apologizing. According to the actual context and situation, the need for apology is inconsistepar the taltheology is more related to the exter context and events. For example, in the fourth episode, when Hu Yifei was buying snack, the new waiter, Galijiang, was unfamiliar with the operation, so she kept placing wrong orders and finally bought a pile of snack. Galijiang sa对不起” to Hu Yifei about this mistake. It can be seen that apologies are generated due to external events, in or relationships and avoid embarrassment. Friends the demand for apologies is more rooted in inner guilt and self-blame. In the Episode of 1, Ross called his bride's nan wedding, which led to him constantly asking for his wife's forg understand why Emily would think it meant something, you know because-because it was you." It can be seen that he apologized for his inappropriate words and actions that hurt the relationship between both parties in order to salvage the relationship. For example, in the second episode of IpartmentZhao Haitang verbally attacked the other person when he was unsure if he was the person he needed to find, and finally apologized for his behavior He said “抱歉”. This example is also due to one's improper behavior, apologizing in order to request forgiveness from the other party. In the same episoder iefnd,sRoss saidl'm sorryl, can't move to London without Ben." He apologized to Emily for something he couldn't do.
道歉的原因有很多。根据实际情况和情况,道歉的需要是不一致 的,滑石论更多地与外部背景和事件相关。比如第四集,胡一飞在买零食的时候,新来的服务员加利江对操作不熟悉,就不断下错单,最后买了一堆零食。加利江对不起“给胡一飞这个错误。可以看出,道歉是由于外部事件而产生的,在关系中或关系中,避免尴尬。朋友们,道歉的要求更多植根于内心的内疚和自责。在第 1 集中,罗斯打电话给他新娘的婚礼,这导致他不断询问他妻子的福克,理解为什么艾米丽会认为这意味着什么,你知道,因为——因为是你。可以看出,他为了挽回关系,为自己伤害双方关系的不当行为道歉。比如在《异道》第二集中,赵海棠在不确定对方是否是他需要找的人时,对对方进行了言语攻击,最后为自己的行为道歉,说了句“对不起”。这个例子也是由于一个人的不当行为,为了请求对方的原谅而道歉。在同一集 iefnd,sRoss 说对不起,没有 Ben 就不能搬到伦敦。他向艾米丽道歉,因为他做不到。

This is more meaningful for research. The frequency of apdioginding rimlatively high. In Friends characters often apologize to each other for various reasons, such as not being able to attend appointments, saying the wrong thing, or making inappropriate episode, four sorry words appear in a conversation between Ross and Rachel about nosebleeds.

在《老友记》第 19 集中,瑞秋要求菲比为丢失莫妮卡的耳环道歉。“对不起!我很抱歉!莫妮卡“好吧,我的意思是,你能做什么?如果你失去了它,你就失去了它。但是,当瑞秋承认自己丢失了耳环时,莫妮卡说:“这正是我不借给你东西的原因!好?!,“ 可以看出,对不同朋友的道歉会根据关系的亲密程度做出回应。因为瑞秋总是失去莫尼克的东西,所以她对她更生气,但这并不影响他们的关系。
