Speech acts vs language knowledge
Construction of sentences using certain “established vocabulary” and rules of syntax has to do with a competence, namely the knowledge of a language (De Certeau, 1984, p. 13). It can be distinguished from the act of speaking which can be regarded as performance which includes more aspects than the knowledge of a language (ibid.). There is an effect of the performance on the “appropriation” of language by a speaker, because it is spatially and temporally relative. This includes also a placement within a whole network of relationships and places (ibid., 1984). The act of speaking can be regarded as a practice following De Certeau (ibid., p. 22) or a tactical maneuvre of the art of manipulation.
