Teaching Pragmatics in EFL Classrooms
by Nguyen Thi Thuy Minh and Le Van Canh
This book explores the tight connection between language learning and pragmatic competence, in contrast to mostly focus on teaching grammar or other structural rules. One of the most important things this book tries to deliver is to avoid misuse of words or expressions that can lead to miscommunication, misunderstanding, or even unintended offenses due to the students failing to understand the context and how it should be handled. But worry not, because although the content is tricky to discuss, Nguyen Minh and Le Canh wrote the book in a progressive and linear manner, which should make it easy to follow.
