What is a "face-threatening act"?

A face-threatening act is a communicative action that challenges or threatens someone's social identity, self-esteem, or dignity in a conversation. This can occur through direct criticism, insults, requests that impose on someone's time, or any behavior that undermines a person's social face or public image. For example, telling someone, "You always make mistakes," can be seen as a face-threatening act because it may damage that person's self-esteem.
