Abstract

 This article examines the role of implicature and inference in conversations about marriage, highlighting how these linguistic phenomena shape interpersonal communication and understanding between partners. By analyzing dialogues from various cultural contexts, we explore how implicature—what is suggested but not explicitly stated—and inference—the process through which listeners derive meaning—play crucial roles in marital discourse. The findings suggest that effective communication in marriage often relies on shared knowledge, cultural norms, and contextual cues, which can lead to both positive interactions and misunderstandings. This study contributes to the understanding of language use in intimate relationships and offers insights for improving marital communication.
