Abstrakt

The paper analyzes the language used by drivers on the Citizens’ Band radio (CB radio). The users of the radio communicate only in speech, their communication is highly pragmatic and based on partnership. The utterances alternate between formal and informal ones, which determines the range and register of vocabulary. Drivers often use diminutives and polite addresses thus creating the atmosphere of mutual respect and cordiality, which can be comforting and reassuring for strangers who happen to establish a casual contact. The specific language used on the CB radio fulfils two basic functions: it creates a sense of community among drivers and protects the information passed on as warnings. At the end of the paper, the author appends a comprehensive glossary of the CB language.
