Subject: Issues in Acquisitional Pragmatics
In reply to: carmen lúcia carvalho d'ávila 's message, "Acquisitional pragmatics" on 04:12:12 09/28/09 Mon

Dear mates,

This text is very interesting because it brings an important issue of the second language learning. While learning L2 the students have to develop the ability to use the language appropriately interpreting the indirect intention that is behind the communication in a sociocultural context. The major component of pragmatic competence is the correct use of the speech acts in many occasions and the appropriated selection of the linguistics forms by the speaker. This is the reason why teachers have to teach much more than the language itself they have to teach what it is beyond language, it means cultural behavior, beliefs and cultural constraints in order to avoid misunderstandings and rudeness.

We would like to congratulate Carmen and Luana on their interesting and helpful presentation!
