Summary/Abstract: The paper aims to explore the category of the interjection in Romanian language by relying to the theory of the acts of speech. The objective of my work is to describe the functioning of the interjection in speech by evoking the role of situational context which determines the multifunctional character. This type of approach will allow me to analyse the expressive potential and the communicative significace of this group of words.
