What is Understanding Implication and Implicature about?
Implication refers to something that is implied or suggested in an utterance, distinct from the literal meaning. There are different types of implicatures, including conventional and unconventional, which depend on context. Grice developed an influential theory to explain how conversational implicatures are understood based on principles of cooperation. Critics argue that speakers communicate more than just information transmission and that meaning can be concealed through implication.
