A Speaker expresses through language his wish to get the Addressee to act and as a result the Addressee forms an intention do so. There is no implication that the Addressee actually acts upon the intention formed. In the case of convince and persuade, the act that the Speaker wishes the Addressee to perform can be the adoption of a belief, which may be expressed as a that-clause or as an of-PP complement. This frame differs from Attempt_suasion in that in Suasion, the Addressee has changed their mind in accord with the Speaker's wishes, whereas in Attempt_suasion, the only implication is that the Speaker communicates with the intent of changing the mind of the Addressee. |
