Summary/Abstract: Trust and speech are presupposing each other. The substantiation of our thesis is possible by the reconsideration of the basic elements of Austin’s speech act theory. The trust act is a performative manifestation and contains locution, illocution and perlocution in a particular sense. Focusing on illocution we are emphasizing that trust as a relation doesn’t appear from nowhere, but it is presupposed as a rapport even without the object of trust, and trust is a projection on the adequacy of words and acts. The speech act expresses the trust act, the trust act creates the liaison of words and acts, and the liaison within the participating actors.
