Hi there!
Regarding speech act theory,I'm looking for a a definition of
fundamental terms:
		locution,
		illocution,
		perlocution.

My point of vue is the following:

	locution: transmitted information (with context);
	illocution: manner "around" information;
	perlocution: intention.

Especially for illocution, the definition is quite ambigue. So,
I'm interested in miscellaneous point of vue, or links.
Thanks for your responses (if possible be mail, sure to see it!)
Laurent
