Abstract

Pragmatics, as an inferential cognitive system, seeks to determine the speaker’s objective purposes, through knowledge of the text and its rhetorical strategy. Hence, the objective meaning is the mainstay of interpretation, by revealing the value of the statement outside the linguistic world, in the sense of searching for the practical dimension of the statement. Pragmatics makes linguistic action an event in the world that seeks expression through communication. Searle's theory of speech acts is considered one of the activities undertaken to prove the decisive role of ordinary language in expanding meanings, as his theory was built on the three dimensions by which every achievement act differs from the other, which are: the achievement purpose, the direction of conformity, and the condition of sincerity. Saeed Al-Saqlawi’s poetry is distinguished by the fact that it includes a multiplicity of topics, a diversity of places and times, and other indicators of the existential context, which allowed for the emergence of rhetorical exchange between all parties and diverse textual contexts, which opens the way for a diversity of styles and formulas, which makes this blog a field of poetry. A fertile place in which issues become clear Pragmatics. The purpose of this research is to monitor the most prominent creative techniques that lead to the recipient’s interaction in the communication process through the descriptive analytical approach and relying on the pragmatic approach, trying to reach an exploration of the creative data and techniques that the poet drank from and that seeped into his poems spontaneously from Samah’s nature and how to employ them and the extent of Al-Saqlawi’s success. In this process, I loaded the text with fertile semantic loads in order to convey the idea to the recipient. One of the most important findings of this research is that the speech acts employed in Saeed Al-Saqlawi's verses create an effective engine for arousing emotions and feelings,
