Cíle předmětu
The aim of the course is the acquiring of the most important issues from the area of pragmalinguistics, which, unlike syntax and semantics, takes into consideration the users of a particular language and the entire situational context, which determines a given communicative situation, including the behaviour of the discourse participants. Apart from that the students are expected to be able to apply their knowledge from pragmalinguistics and other branches of linguistics studies in their own teaching professions.
Výstupy z učení
The students are expected: 1. to be able to analyze authentic written as well as spoken text from the viewpoint of pragmalinguistics, i.e. the users of the language; 2. to understand the differences in the ways of expression depending on contextual and sociocultural factors, e.g. between the ways of expression applied in public and private settings; 3. to be capable of distinguishing various language means on the scales of formality and informality, directness and indirectness, and politeness and impoliteness; 4. to be able to provide examples of concrete features appropriate and typical for various communicative situations and describe them while using linguistic terms from the area of pragmatics; 5. to be able to prepare concrete activities applicable in the teaching profession in which the knowledge and skills acquired in the sessions on pragmalinguistics are used.
Osnova
  • The course of Pragmalinguistics is a core subject of the linguistic section and presents an indispensable starting point for the understanding of contemporary didactic trends. The course objective is to gain basic knowledge of pragmalinguistics, i.e. a linguistic field which unlike syntax or semantics, takes into consideration the user of the language and the whole situational context which determines a given communicative situation. Doctoral students are taught to be able to apply newly gained theoretical knowledge in their own research when writing their dissertations. Topics to be covered: Relationship between pragmalinguistics and other linguistic disciplines, syntax and semantics in particular. Deixis and deictic expressions and their manifestation in the language system. Spacial, time, personal and social deixis. Reference and inference. Presupposition. Types of presupposition. Conversational and conventional implicatures and their tzpes. Principles of cooperation and conversational maxims. Cooperative Principle. Politeness Principle. Theory of speech acts. Direct and indirect speech acts. Politeness and interaction. Conversation and preference structures. Conversational style and its analysis. Pragmatic accent and cultural schemata. Discourse and culture.
