授業の概要

In this course, students will learn the basics of pragmatics. They will be required to summarize and present the assigned part at least once in the semester with the guidance of the instructor and help them develop their communication skills.

科目目的

Part of a two-course series, along with Grammar for Communication, this course draws on the study of linguistics to help students develop communication skills in English. The course teaches students about aspects of language use that lie beyond the grammar and vocabulary and applies principles of English pragmatics to English communication.

到達目標

By the end of this course, students should be able to:
(a) understand the basic pragmatic expressions and theories.
(b) improve communicative effectiveness by understanding deixis, presupposition, implicature, speech acts, and politeness.
(c) learn to apply their own theoretical understanding to practical experience through extensive classroom exercises.
