SORU: ?
Performative utterances do not report anything that can
be regarded as true or false. If a person makes an
utterance of this sort, we can say that he or she is doing
something rather than merely saying something. That is,

sentences, the action is named by the verb, which is
called performative verb.
With reference to the given information, which of the
