Abstract : The research study opines that im/politeness diversity is encoded with socio-cultural and linguistic features and other aspects that can shape the understanding of im/politeness research around the globe. This study’s objective is to examine understandings of im/politeness between interlocutors, their beliefs about how they (i) perceive im/politeness, (ii) the methodological developments in im/politeness research, and (iii) the role of ethno cultural styles in im/politeness. The paper overviews the basic theoretical and methodological aspects. In the broadest sense, it covers a wide range of social, and cultural cognition, and identity construction. The importance of this research may likely be highlighted in sociocultural and cognitive aspects in im/politeness across cultures and contexts. The research approach used in the study was qualitative research, based on reviewing literature and multiple case studies on im/politeness across cultures and languages. This research explores the problems encountered by the interlocutors in communication due to the nature of im/politeness. This overview provides a brief introductory concept and seeks to cover these concepts by revisiting comments and a conclusion. It is stated that creating awareness in this direction demonstrates to scholars and learners the differences in im/politeness systems across cultures and a variety of contexts. The authors also observed im/politeness and ethno-cultural communication styles in the Pakistani context. Moreover, this research can help young scholars cope with sociocultural and cognitive aspects of im/politeness across cultures and contexts and its role as a fundamental component in human communication and language.
