課程概述

Course Description
This course will present pragmatics within an overall program for studying language as a social interaction system. We deal mainly with the extent to which language interpretation and production and social interaction depend on language users’ reflexive assumptions and inferences about each other. Pragmatics is the study we rely on in order to elucidate the relevant assumptions and the logic of the inferences so that we can make our social interaction completed.
 

課程目標
Course Objective
It is hoped that the students may have, via systematic pragmatics, a greater understanding of the factors that influence a speaker’s choice to say something the way s/he does, and a hearer’s interpretation of what has been said and what was meant by it. In other words, we hope to present issues related to the negotiation of interpretation and roles that characterizes pragmatics, with the aim to gain a better understanding of how humans communicate and how human mind works. During the course, we would look at the way people actually use language in relation to user context, and provide a reasonable account of why people say a particular thing on a particular occasion; what people are trying to do with their language; and how people cooperate in conversation.
