Dialogical text as component of the derivative interpretative process

The article aims at showing special features of the continuous derivative interpretative process in a dialogue. Formal (static) models describing dialogical texts that dominated in the 1940s-1980s are declarative, so the language may be represented statically in the cognition theory only. These models have no explanatory power and cannot claim for an adequate cognition of the object of study ontologi-cally. The academic novelty of the aim is justified by two reasons. Firstly, the subject to consider is a dialogue. Secondly, the dialogue and its product, a dialogical text, are justified by manifestation of a continuous derivative interpretative process as the core of language dynamics. Consequently, a dialog-ical text is considered as a derivative language/speech unit, and a derivative text as a dialogical text. The article focuses on a dialogical text as a component of the continuous derivative interpretative process According to the conception developed in the article, language dynamics is stipulated by the property of language sign interpretability, tendencies of a language sign to be interpreted and not to be interpreted related to language unit production/reproduction and the functional position of a speech subject taking part in communication acts in the status of a responder. Neutralization mechanism appearing in convergence and divergence of its derivative options is recognized as a critical engine of derivative interpretative dialogical text functioning. The process of two or more options in a derivative variant structurally matching or not matching the original version is understood as convergence of a dialogical text derivative options. The mechanism of aligning by analogy accounts for convergence of derivative options of a dialogical text. In other words, neutralization of the derivative option of a dialogical text is accompanied by their aligning in relation to the communicative term addressee image. The process of appearance of new derivative options of the text from the basic text (derivative version appearing as a result of neutralization) with the help of a formal accordance of modus predicates as structuring components of their internal forms is understood as a dialogical text divergence. Dialogical text derivative versions reflect the means of the internal form structural organization of a dialogical text as a potential carrier of its derivative interpretative development. It is proved that a dialogical text appearing as a result of neutralization relates to original derivative versions in terms of actualization of one of modus macropropositions, versions of the structural organization of a dialogical text internal form: concord, contrast or adjunction.
