Where has this idea come from that the word 'utterance' was coin in 1985? J.L. Austin uses the term repeatedly in his lectures 'How to do things with words' originally from 1955. 109.156.12.245 ( talk) 10:43, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
Hi! My name is Carolina and I think this article has a lot of important and relevant information to the term "utterance", but the structure of some of the sentences and a couple paragraphs could use some work. The Child Directed Speech section in particular is quite repetitive and not as specific as it could be when referring to Hoff's analysis, so I am planning on adding a bit of that to the article in the near future. I have also been changing a few sentences (in regards to grammar and structure) to make information flow a bit easier and will be doing some more of that for the rest of the article as well. Finally, I also plan on adding a couple more sources to this article to increase its credibility a bit. Good work on being well-informed on the topic of utterances! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Carolinaa.om ( talk • contribs) 06:32, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
I think this article ought to be redirected to the
pragmatics article - the only technical meaning of "utterance" that I'm aware of is that used in linguistics.--

In the section of utterances child directed speech plays a key role. Studies have been conducted where parents socioeconomic statuses have been studied due to how that affects the amount and type of utterances that are directed towards their children and how that in turn affects their utterances and speech development. In addition how utterances allow room for interpretation and different meanings can arise from it and just the overall development of utterances needs to be added to this article.

Hi! My name is Alexandria and I am currently taking a sociology class in FIU. For my class there is a wikipedia project in which we pick an article that needs more information added to it to work on for the rest of the semester and I chose this one. The information that i plan on adding to this article includes:spoken language characteristics that affect utterances like paralinguistic features, prosodic features, and ellipsis. In addition non-fluency features including: voiced/un-voiced pauses, tag questions, false alerts, fillers, accent/dialect, deictic expressions, simple conjunctions and colloquial lexis. I will also be adding Differences b/w speech and planned writing and how utterances are portrayed in both, studies of speech: like H.P Grice (1975) and his maxims of quantity, relation, manner, and quality, uses of rhetoric, and frameworks of speech:discourse structure, graphology, lexis, grammar/ syntax, phonology, pragmatics. [1]
In addition, utterances and child directed speech [2] [3] In addition under child directed speech (utterances used by parents directed to children and how that affects development of language and utterances used by children, which ultimately creates a cycle and developmental of language in the world) i will add the uses of :phonology, lexis and semantics, grammar, amount of one-word utterances, research of studies used to support this information like: Berko and Brown (1960), Katherine Nelson (1975), etc, and pragmatics.

Hello, I'm Samaria and I will be peer reviewing your article. I think you have become very familiar with your topic and gained a lot of insight through your sources. Also, you should look into the questions that other wikipedants had regarding this article. Keep up the good work. @Alejuly98 Shortieex ( talk) 15:58, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
The scope of this article needs clarification. Specifically, utterances can include nonverbal speech such as a 'soft cough' to attract attention, or sign language. Additionally, this article's focus on spoken language analysis fails to detail the legal concept of an utterance as "an oral or written statement : a stated or published expression" that includes any textual representation of speech, particularly in the context of the circulation of forged or counterfeit monetary notes. A better lede would be something like, "An utterance is an act or instance of expressed speech whether as gesture, sound, or representative text." -- Kent Dominic·(talk) 08:43, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
