Introduction. Pragmatic phenomena exploration from semiotic viewpoint is among unresolved problem of the present-day linguistics. Scientific indifference to this matter can be explained by traditional concept of linguistic sign as a unit that relate to a designated object or situation in a conventional way and forms obligatory structural links with other signs.The paper introduces a new pragma-semiotic facet of pragmatic phenomena and identifies the taxonomy of “pragma-sign” as specific units connoting some regular associations with particular types of situations.

This paper examines literary discourse patterns using the Appraisal Framework (Martin & White, 2005) and the Extended Pragma-dialectic Theory of Argumentation (van Eemeren & Grootendorst, 1984, 1992, 2004). It aims to demonstrate how these approaches offer systematic and logical methods for studying literature. By focusing on the linguistic tools through which authors and texts express, negotiate, and promote particular viewpoints, the study shows how these frameworks help reveal the ways writers convince readers of the acceptability of arguments.

Abstract Efficient communication requires the interplay of linguistic, cognitive and social skills, including the ability to make contextual inferences and to understand others’ intentions and emotions.

Introduction. Pragma-linguistics is a branch of linguistics that examines the interrelationships between speech functions and speech forms. The speech situation is a situation that causes speech. It consists of several components. They are speaker and interlocutors, speech context, speech objectives, speech act as a form of action or activity, and utterance as a product of verbal action. The last studies show that there are some issues in pragma-linguistics related to speech situation and interactions between speech participants.

The combination of linguistics and cultural analysis leads back to Wilhelm von Humboldt’s concept of linguistic worldview. In it, a direct connection between thinking and speaking (in a particular ethnic or national language) is presupposed, thus implying the influence of languages on cultures. In contrast to this postulate of the unity of languages and cultures, discourse-sensitive linguistics shows the diversity of varieties within ethno- or national-language-demarcated cultures.

Abstract:
Based on Jenny Thomas’s dichotomous classification of pragmatic failure, this study proposes a new perspective and classifies pragmatic failure in interpretation into three categories: pragma-linguistic failure, socio-pragmatic failure and malaprop-pragmatic failure. Specific examples are given to illustrate the causes and effects of each category of pragmatic failure in interpretation. Meanwhile, this study establishes the “curriculum-textbook-teacher-teaching” scheme to develop students’ pragmatic competence in interpreting with which they are able to

Abstract:
In this article I critically discuss four studies in the area of Human–Computer Interaction (HCI) research. The focus is on distinct dimensions of culture including both verbal and para-verbal behavior in communication. My discussion is grounded in Weigand’s (2010) theory of dialogic action games (DAG), a pragma-linguistic theory which is based on a view of language as language action. The main question is whether or not the presented research leads in a direction towards making computers believable dialog partners.

Abstract:
This cognitive, small-scale study reviews the formulaic expressions used in the Quranic discourse. From a pragma-stylistic view, it examines the extent to which the Quranic expressions identified by Arab linguists as ‘odd’ words are used as discourse markers. Based on more recent denotational theories, the paper claims that these expressions are unlikely to be anomalous. It theorizes that these phrases are verbal clues that work on the discourse level. The study utilizes corpus linguistics for data collection. Theoretically, it builds on discourse analysis (DA) as a main approach to data categ

Abstract
 The authors of the article focus on a comparative analysis of linguistic constructs representing communicative strategies and tactics, the combination of which determines the unique synergistic structure of the inaugural discourse in different language cultures (Russian/Chinese). The relevance of this work is defined by the object of the study itself. The act of inauguration, being a crucial marker in the political culture of society, represents a complex institutional phenomenon. On the one hand, it records the transition and legitimation of state power, and on the other hand,

"This paper analyses three of Eugen Ionescu’s plays, namely The Bald Soprano, The Lesson, and The Chairs, by employing methodology specific to pragma linguistics and literary theory. In the aforementioned plays, the characters behave like puppets, and are devoid of inner life. Their communication turns into gibberish that fails to convey additional information, while the characters cling to words as if they were lifebelts saving them from drowning in nothingness. The study follows the characters’ inability to have communicative competence: the speakers are mere operators of language, which the

This area of research is still understudied, especially in terms of demonstrating how app-mediated touristscapes are co-told, transduced, and augmented by networked assemblage between participants and mobile interfaces. Drawing on a pragma-semiotic approach, the present study aims to investigate the spatiotemporal constitution of Dubai as a mobile-mediated touristscape.

English is unquestionably an international tongue, and it is now more significant than ever due to its widespread use. Students must communicate in English both for academic and professional purposes. To meet the diverse learning demands of Indian students from various age groups, social backgrounds, and cultural backgrounds, a variety of teaching strategies are observed and used. The Grammar Translation method, used up until the 1970s, was teaching linguistic forms and structures with the goal of enhancing grammatical proficiency through memorization of rules, to comprehend the syntax of the
