FELICITY CONDITIONS
The conditions which must be fulfilled for a speech promise


1-a sentence states a future act of the speaker
2-the speaker has the ability to do the act
3-the hearer prefers the speaker to do the act
4-the speaker intends to do the act

Speech acts (whether direct or indirect) can be classified according to their felicity.
a-Speech acts are infelicitous
(meaning they are don’t work as intended) when certain essential requirements are not met. When is a speech act infelicitous?

…when the utterance is illogical
: I promise to call you last year
…when certain requirements aren’t met: I will buy you a Porsche, honey
…when the speaker is lying: I really like your new jacket

Note that there is a subtle difference between the three examples. The first one can never ‘work’ (i.e. be felicitous), because it is inherently illogical. The second one may work or not, depending on whether the speaker can afford to buy her partner a Porsche – something she might not know for sure herself at the time of making the utterance. The third one is a flat-out lie in (in this example) – the speaker does not like the listener’s new jacket. Felicity conditions are determined by context and especially performative speech acts often require a number of contextual conditions in order to be felicitous
