ragmatics deals with (1) the meaning of words and phrases in context, as opposed to stand-alone, contextless meaning (i.e., semantics), and (2) how language is used and understood in real contexts, be it spoken or written.

Basic pragmatics knowledge can be tremendously helpful and practical for language teachers
