Abstract

This paper attempts to apply the Appraisal Theory (AT) to the study of address-term variation.Address variation can help to activate the speaker’s emotional stance, judgemental evaluation and appreciative appraisal of the addressee as well as his/her behaviors.The Engagement system and the Graduation system of AT also can help to explore the attitudinal meanings of address variation.
