Request (DIT): S wants A to perform the action that forms the semantic content, conditional on A’s consent.Request (TRAINS): A request involves one agent attempting to get the other agent to do something by direct means. If a request is not taken up, it must be explicitly denied by the hearer either by stating that he won’t comply or by suggesting a modification to the requested action. The requested action may be either a domain act or a problem solving. Particular subclasses of requests involving questions are treated individually as they have their own specific syntactic markers in language.Request (Verbmobil): REQUEST is defined as being a not further specifiable request. If you realize that the speaker requests some action from the hearer, but cannot decide whether it is a REQUEST_CLARIFY, a REQUEST_COMMENT, a REQUEST_SUGGEST or some other time of request, you use the dialogue act REQUEST.
