Abstract:

Factors that disturb everyday communication include those connected with the assessment of the level of correctness of using the Polish language by interlocutors. They consist in indicating a noticed error of speech (e.g. during conversation or while writing comments on an Internet forum). Independently from the level of linguistic competence, the interlocutors often focus on the metalinguistic aspect of utterance. It is connected with the conviction that the message should not only be comprehensible but also linguistically correct. The main area of interest in the article are situations when the noticing of a linguistic error in the utterance by one of the interlocutors causes a change of content from the current one to the new one, connected with the noticed defect. Such remarks and comments may result in various interferences. In extreme cases a total discontinuation of the communication process may occur.
