This article examines the connection between gift and speech, founded upon linguistic and philosophical concepts. It is based on some works about lexical elements present in the origin of the word “gift” within the language system, as well as the notion of civility. It is followed by propositions and concepts drawn from the realm of discourse, allowing for reflection into the dialogical aspect of gift. Next, the article attempts to assay the communication conditions of the dialogue in a particular case of cellphone calls in collective situations. This analysis presents the hypothesis of a correlation between dialogical relations and social relations, and aims to interrogate the condition of the being-together within contemporary western culture.
