Abstract EN
This study aims at investigating Culpeper's (1996, 2005) impoliteness strategies by analyzing 300 Iraqi Arabic facebook comments (of which 150 comments are employed by males and 150 by females).
These comments are collected from Iraqi formal facebook pages.
It selects ten Arabic topics that come under the categories of entertainment, fashion, lifestyle, health, food, political state and social matters.
