Introducing Pragmatics in Use is a lively and accessible introduction to pragmatics, which both covers theory and applies it to real spoken and written data.
Pragmatics is the study of language in context, yet most textbooks rely on invented language examples.

The authors investigate the pragmatic implications of the globalisation of the English language and focus on the applications of pragmatics for teaching languages.
