This Element introduces the areas that second language (L2)
pragmatics research has investigated. It begins with a theme-based
review of the field with respect to L2 pragmatics learning,
teaching, and assessing. The section on pragmatics learning
examines studies on learners' pragmatic production and perception,
and analyzes research modalities in this field. The section on
pragmatics teaching examines the effects of and different
approaches to L2 pragmatics instruction; and the section on
pragmatics assessing examines the aspects involved in testing
learners' pragmatic competence, and studies on issues related to
validity and rating in pragmatics assessing. The Element then
analyzes studies exploring learners' cognitive processes during
pragmatic performance, and case studies are provided to showcase
two ongoing projects, one investigating advanced learners'
self-praise on social media and the other investigating lingua
franca pragmatics among children. Finally, the Element offers some
topics and questions for future research in L2 pragmatics.
