 Hello! As you probably know, pragmatics is the branch of linguistics that studies the use of language and its effects. This unit introduces three aspects of pragmatic analysis. It'll be shown how words or phrases can relate an utterance to time, space or persons, what speakers do with their utterances and how speakers organize conversations. The content activities with an e-lecture and several micro-teaching videos will look at the interpretation of utterances, discuss the cooperative principle and show how conversation can be organized. In the question set of the how to proceed section, you find the respective hyperlinks for guidance. As usual, tick off each activity you have successfully mastered to document your own learning progress. The mastery test of this unit is a choice task, which should be easy to pass after content mastery. And the suggestions for the in-class activities provide you with data, ranging from simple utterances to complex dialogues, all ready for analysis. So, good luck with this unit!
