This study intends to expand the range of studies on the acquisition of pragmatic competence in English as a foreign language, with special attention paid to impoliteness. It examines the development of one component of learner interlanguage pragmatics, i.e., requests, and looks for acquisitional patterns in modifying their impositive force in advanced Polish learners of English. A sample of linguistic written data was collected in a longitudinal study by means of a discourse completion task (DCT). The author seeks evidence of impoliteness by examining alerters, external moves, internal mitigation, together with strategies for expressing the directness of requests. On this basis, conclusions about noticeable impoliteness in the interlanguage pragmatic competence of the participants are drawn.

W obliczu zmian społecznych, powiązanych z nasilającymi się ruchami migracyjnymi w Polsce i Europe, nauczyciele i osoby zarządzające oświatą już prawie na co dzień uczą i pracują w środowisku, które w różnym stopniu charakteryzuje się interkulturowością. W literaturze pedagogicznej, zwłaszcza w tej dotyczącej interkulturowości i kompetencji, najczęściej pomija się fakt, iż wielokulturowa edukacja oznacza nie tylko same pozytywy. Niestety kontakt na gruncie szkolnym i uniwersyteckim między uczącymi się czy nauczycielami pochodzącymi z różnych kultur często prowadzi do nieporozumień, z których tylko część można wytłumaczyć brakiem dostatecznej świadomości czy też kompetencji językowej osób w nim uczestniczących. Coraz więcej badań dowodzi, że niekiedy uczący się lub nauczający świadomie formułują wypowiedzi o charakterze rasistowskim i w kontaktach z przedstawicielami innych kultur, narodów lub krajów, do których są uprzedzeni, ich zachowanie przybiera formę ataków fizycznych, słownych, niewerbalnych czy też graficznych. Ataki werbalne, u podłoża których może leżeć między innymi agresywny nacjonalizm, nietolerancja lub dyskryminacja, określa się metaforycznym mianem „mowy nienawiści”. Ten rodzaj wypowiedzi z reguły ma na celu rozpowszechnianie lub usprawiedliwianie nienawiści rasowej bądź ksenofobii. Nasza prezentacja stanowi próbę omówienia wybranych cech charakterystycznych mowy nienawiści w Polsce, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem tych badań, które dotyczą środowiska szkolnego i uniwersyteckiego.

The recent political and social events that took place in Europe made us all re-visit some of the basic assumptions of intercultural communication studies. According to the authors of this paper, most theoretical and empirical studies concerning intercultural communication seem to neglect the fact that some interlocutors are intentionally impolite and motivated by their racist and/or xenophobic views, which becomes visible in contact with representatives of other cultures, nationalities or countries. Such a behaviour may take the form of physical attacks while linguistic performance may include verbal/nonverbal signs of interlocutors’ prejudiced attitudes. Poland is no exception here. It is our conviction that: 1) there is a dire need to define what hate speech motivated by racism and/or xenophobic attitudes is and what its features are, and 2) linguistic research on this phenomenon can offer a considerable step forward in this area. Since there are apparently no clear criteria what constitutes an act of racially motivated verbal and nonverbal violence in Polish, the authors of this paper aim at portraying its characteristic features on the basis of semi-formal interviews carried out with migrants living in Poland. The research took place within the RADAR project (Regulating Anti-Discrimination and Anti-Racism), co-funded by the European Commission, and conducted in six of the European Union countries.

The existing studies on pragmatic competence of English teachers, e.g., J. Majer and Ł. Salski (2004), E. Krawczyk-Neifar (2004), M. Savič (2016), A. Szczepaniak-Kozak and E. Wąsikiewicz-Firlej (in press), indicate that it is not varied and requires improvement in certain areas. These deficiencies might be interpreted as a result of not only the absence of pragmatic competence (PC) modules in teachertraining education but also a relatively low frequency of English teachers’ contact with native speakers (NS) of English (A. Szczepaniak-Kozak 2010). Nevertheless, we know very little what shape teacher PC takes, including the way it differs from that represented by NSs. Additionally, to the best of our knowledge, there are no studies based on data collected in naturalistic settings (lessons of English). Consequently, this paper attempts to fill in this gap in research by presenting the methodology and conduct of a case study, based on classroom observation of teachers’ pragmatic performance, to investigate whether there are differences in the PC represented by non-native teachers (NNTs) and native teachers (NTs) of English. The findings indicate that NTs do not hold the upper hand in this regard and that a demonstrable linguistic and pragmatic competence, along with appropriate professional training, are better indicators of diverse pragmatic input. On this basis, we propose that some degree of proficiency in pragmatics and its teaching should be a requirement for a certificate or diploma for future foreign language teachers.

Acquisition of pragmatic competence (PC) in a foreign language is a gradual process, which is not trouble-free and effortless even for advanced learners. Since most of the existing research on PC has focused on learners of English, this paper constitutes an attempt to investigate this matter from the perspective of foreign language teachers, with particular attention paid to teachers of English in Poland. Its aim is to investigate whether individual differences influence the acquisition of PC on the basis of data collected during classroom observations and in interviews with teachers. This way the authors endeavor to answer the question whether PC of the teachers depends on their general linguistic ability in English, their educational background and teacher preparation, or the stage of their career development.
