Teaching Arabic language based on pragmatics and intercultural discourse

Language is regarded as the manifestation of intellectual and material life of mankind so that it is the most prominent means for human beings to express their mental and heart’s desires. Accordingly, various theorists in different areas including linguistics, psychology, sociology, communication sciences, cultural studies, and etc. have studied the mechanism of languages structures and lingual systems from the view of combination, semantics and pragmatics. Hence, they provided an appropriate background for presenting new methods in learning a language through speech process analysis and mutual perception of written and verbal communications. In this regard, the present author seeks to present a new approach in Arabic learning process based on a descriptive-analytical method from the view of theoretical concepts of applied syntax and in the light of pragmatics and intercultural discourse. Through this approach, the materials are presented in a pragmatical- contextual framework to provide a basis for the students to think in Arabic and to apply the language according to the lingual and applied textures.
