Summary/Abstract: This paper refers to the classification of the pragmatic marks in one of the most watched categories of speeches, the political one. The reference area of this type of speech focuses on the televised political one, of the president of Romania, Klaus Iohannis, during the coronavirus pandemic. The speech analysis, of the first man in the Romanian political society, is seen from the perspective of the aspects developed by Catherine Kerbrat Orecchioni with a special emphasis on the pragmatic marks of contact and the pragmatic mark of attention stimuli. Therefore, in this paper, we aim to focus on identifying and analyzing the pragmatic marks in the Romanian political television discourse, as contact marks of the speaker.
