Phatic communion is spoken communication that is intended more to share feelings or establish an atmosphere of sociability rather than to communicate facts and ideas.

What are phatic tokens?

Phatic token My knowledge of its meaning is this: Phatic - a polite form, but not polite as a statement. Token - a measure, suggestion, small offer.. Phatic token means to socially fuel the conversational dialog in as far as being polite, drumming up a dialog, a social mood enhancer. For example "your welcome" "thanks" "its cold out, isn't it?" "you seem to know what your doing" "its not not my fault is it?" "do you work her?" They do not have to be questions, it could simply be an utterance, a token sentence of no importance.


What does the phatic talk mean?

Phatic talk is the same as phatic expressions or 'small talk'. Things like 'hello, how are you?', 'Whats up' or 'hows it going'. it is a social thing or a conversation starter used to create or stimulate a relationship between the conversation participants. it does not require detailed answers. Also 'you're welcome' and other such sentences are called 'Phatic responses' as it doesn't literally mean the hearer is 'welcome' but is used as an acknowledgement of the hearers gratitude. I hope that helps :)

Is there a word for polite small talk such as hello how are you?

A "Phatic" expression is one whose only function is to perform a social task, as opposed to conveying information. For example, "you're welcome" is not intended to convey the message that the hearer is welcome; it is a phatic response to being thanked, which in turn is a phatic whose function is to be polite in response to a gift. Similarly, the question "how are you?" is usually an automatic component of a social encounter. This kind of "small talk" (conversation for its own sake) has also been called "grooming talking".
