THE IMPORTANCE OF PRAGMATIC KNOWLEDGE AND COMPETENCE IN MAINTAINING COMMUNICATION
Keywords:
pragmatic competence, pragmatic knowledge, communication, linguistic communication, linguistic expression
Abstract
In order to share and deliver ideas or information and exchange knowledge, humans must communicate with one another. However, not all people are good communicators. When a speaker speaks, the listener must pay attention to the context and meaning of the utterances to effectively respond; otherwise, the response will break the communication. For this reason, this paper elaborates on the significance of pragmatic knowledge and pragmatic competence in relation to linguistic communication and linguistic expressions used by the speaker and listener.
