Talk:Linguistics/Pragmatics

Where it describes temporal deixis and spatial deixis, the example seems backwards.


 * Temporal deixis: Here refers to a place, understood by the listener in context.
 * Spatial deixis: Last night refers to the night before the utterance of the sentence, which also depends on context.

If these are reversed, they should be corrected. If these are not reversed, then more explanation is necessary to make them clear.

In the section where it describes essential conditions, it seems to me that it would be best not to use an idiom or at the least clarify that it is an idiom. It seems like it could be confusing to not explain that it's not intended to be a literal phrase.
