摘要
This chapter looks at hedging as an aspect of pragmatic competence. After describing the evolution of the concept of hedging from 1972 to the present day, it reviews the principal properties of hedges and discusses the relationship between hedging and the discourse effects of vagueness, evasion, equivocation, and politeness. The final part of the chapter presents examples of hedging from a range of sources, illustrating the ubiquity of the concept.
