Pragmatic Analysis of a Text : Problems and Prospects

Md. Nurul Haque *

Abstract

The meaning of a word is decided by the sentence in which it is used and the meaning of a sentence becomes clear when it is used in a particular context. A textual meaning also varies from different perspectives and a text cannot mean fully if some of its aspects are not analysed carefully. An interpreter, therefore, should take so many things like, context, reference, inference, presupposition, and implicatures to decipher the hidden meaning from a text. The present paper will dive into different pragmatic points of view to rediscover the real meaning of a text.
