Some of these examples may show the adjective use. When producing an utterance, a speaker's illocutionary intention is his intention to perform some illocutionary act(s) in uttering those words. If so, the composition of the respective monuments would be that of personages uttering their own calendrical names. He shows recognition of the customer's intended word by uttering it and thereby correcting her nonnative pronunciation (line 18). Uttering is a process producing a statement in language (only a discursive element) and assigning a structural position to this statement in the dialogue2. Here again, there is disconnection with the situation of uttering because of the hypothetical marker if, which serves as the locator. Furthermore, uttering a string with quite different linguistic content, such as the bus is late again, would have had a similar effect. Thus, uttering the intransitive verbs go and fall in transitive frames evidently is intended to suggest causative interpretations. Descriptively used negations, like descriptively used positives, are often followed by a clause which provides evidence for the belief expressed in uttering the first clause. The social commitment assumed by a speaker uttering a sentence does not stop with the proposition expressed. The main affordance of categorical reference, including naming, is that it can be accomplished with little interactional work - often by uttering a single word. In spoken interaction the user can interrupt, for instance uttering pardon could you repeat that please or thank you. Thus, in uttering an assertion, the speaker makes himself responsible for the truth of the proposition expressed. In uttering a request, the speaker appeals to his interlocutor(s) to make the proposition expressed come true. In each of these cases, the speaker performs an action merely by uttering the right words under the right circumstances. This act of uttering a specific form is dwelt upon as a contingent or possible event, not simply as something actually done. These examples are from corpora and from sources on the web.
