Course description
Course Objectives:
This course is aimed at:
 Providing students with terms and concepts in Pragmatics of English language.
 Helping students understand the basic knowledge about the relationship between
contexts and meaning, especially meaning in that context and the influence of context in
interpreting the referent, deixis, place and time that the utterences happen.
 Introducing students the language structure and to approaches used in researching less
familiar discourse to interpret the effectiveness of communication between speakers and
listeners.
 Instructing students to use suitable methods of semantics to study elements of meaning
and their uses, contexts of language.
 Suggesting solutions for issues of semantics and meaning interpretation that students
need to consider while doing translation and/or interpretation. This is especially
important for students’ future jobs.
A brief description of the course:
This course is about to teach students basic concepts of Pragmatics in English linguistics
many of which include the definition and roles of contexts, deixis, reference,
presupposition, implicature, politeness, speech acts and conversation structures. This is the
background that students need to grasp so that they understand the relationship between the
meaning of language in real life situations. By understanding the relationship, students
figure out the overlap between semantics and pragmatics, which helps students apply
creatively into real life situations in communication, in interpreting and teaching jobs after
graduation.
