Abstract:
The idea of this research revolves around the manifestation of the meaning of discourse in a specific context, considering language as a living use, and not only abstract signs, as grammar practices may show, but rather requires the production of knowledge that makes these signs live interactive, which requires studying the context. The research will study the Informative discourse of the Jordanian Ministry of Health in light of the Corona pandemic, using the pragmatic approach. Because it is the method concerned with studying language in usage, in addition to being concerned with studying the intentions of the discourse producer, and how it can communicate these intentions at a level that exceeds the level of literal significance. Accordingly, the research will study the mechanisms by which the discourse producer employed the different linguistic levels in a specific context, in order to enable the speech to be able to convey its aims, taking into account external facts such as the speech's time, place, and production context. Emphasis will be placed on discourse strategies that have served purpose and authority; Purposes with the required strategies of persuasion, and the authority required by the strategies of guidance and allusion.
