In linguistics, the expression of gratitude is considered a special speech genre (stable compositional and stylistic features of statements on this topic), a genre of epideictic speech. Gratitude can have various characteristics: direct and indirect gratitude; ritual (etiquette) and emotional (personally significant); motivated and unmotivated; verbal and nonverbal; gratitude to the real recipient and gratitude to higher powers. Gratitude arises based on an emotional and rational assessment of what is happening, the expression of gratitude is ritualized. The causer has a positive emotional impact on the object of causation, recognizing the contribution of the object of causation to the development of relationships, and contributing to their balancing. The situation is defined as beneficial, also poly intentional, actualizing acceptance of responsibility, acceptance of an invitation, refusal of responsibility, refusal of an invitation, refusal to participate, recognition of a positive/negative assessment, acceptance of gratitude, acceptance of help, and expression of consent. The addressee of gratitude can be not only specific people but also communities of people and non-personalized entities: the world, and God. The purpose of the article is to study a fragment of the conceptual field of the Russian language. The methods are free-associative experiments and contextual analysis. Contextual analysis is used to identify and describe the pragmatic potential of the behavioral speech act.
