question 3

The concept I found interesting in this chapter was the pragmatic view. I never thought of communication as a game and people becoming partners and so on. After reading about it though it was pretty interesting to find out about the partners acts or moves each person has to make and how in reality it is really close to for example a sports game but just on a communicative level. Looking at communication through the pragmatic view though to me made me attempt to be clearer when I talk and make sure I am understood better and as clearly as possible because in order for the partnership to work and interaction to occur clearly there cant be misunderstanding.

  1. I am glad you found the Pragmatic Perspective useful. It is! For future week discussions, try picking a concept that was not already discussed in the questions that I posed.
