Title
Intentionality of the text in Sultan´s Haitham bin Tariq speeches: A pragmatic theory study
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the Intentionality of the text in Sultan Haitham’s speeches that draws the features of Oman through the visions and ideas it contains that require community partnership towards a constructive process that completes the renaissance initiated by The Late Sultan Qaboos bin Said. The problem of the study lies in the fact that despite the moral, cognitive and value of the speeches of Sultan Haitham, they didn’t receive ample attention from researchers to reveal their semantic levels and the intent of the text that were included in the linguistic employment within the context of these speeches. In addition, the extent to which the context and circumstances of the speech influence the choice of verb tenses, and the relationship of the context to the time duration and the number of words in each sultan’s speech. The researchers chose the pragmatic theory as an approach in this study. The study concluded that there is consistency between the linguistic lexicon utilized and the intent and conditions of the speech, and the consistency of the time duration of the speech with the communicative message that that the text creator seeks to give. Also there is an impact of the discourse context on the choice of verb tenses, and present tense verbs formed a remarkable presence in contexts that talk about the process of building Oman and future plans, and imperative verbs did not appear in Sultan Haitham’s speeches except in one Qur’anic verse.
