Paper Summary:

This paper reviews the idea that it is often said that compliments are speech events that must be carefully negotiated within their particular social context. With this consideration in mind the following paper observes three naturally occurring compliments. These three compliments are communicated to another party in three different settings in which the person dispensing the compliments has not been prompted to provide them. In the process of so doing, the paper discusses the various ways in which the compliments can be successfully conveyed - or have been, as the case may be.
