Pragmatics Analysis of the Selected Kafi of Khawaja Ghulam Fareed
Abstract
The study provides an in-depth analysis of the speaker's emotional trajectory, characterized by their tragic separation from a significant person and their profound relationship with the supernatural realm. The speaker conveys his willingness to persevere through adversity clearly and convincingly while enthusiastically praising the sacred and faultless character of the Divine home. It is characterized by a qualitative method, and its primary objective is to offer an explanatory explanation of the phenomena that are being investigated. The field of pragmatics is subjected to an in-depth investigation in this work, with an emphasis placed on fundamental aspects, including pragmatics, speech acts, hyperbole, metaphorical language, and assertive speech acts. Deconstructing these pieces is part of the analysis, so that the subtle levels of importance contained within the text may be uncovered. It highlights the tremendous significance linked with the black covering and depicts it as a powerful symbol of cohesiveness despite the many variations. The author alludes in the passage to the possibility that going to the sanctuary can offer solace and result in the abandonment of grief, stressing the transformational possibilities linked with this activity. In addition, It investigates the speaker's enhanced emotional state of melancholy when considering the recollections of the House of God. This method of self-reflection provokes thought on the ephemeral nature of human existence, giving birth to profound philosophical musings. Research elucidates the complex feelings, profound contemplations, and symbolic depth inherent in the speaker's utterances by illuminating the myriad of different parts of pragmatics in the text.
