Abstract
1. Introduction
The goal of this special issue is to present current research in the pragmatics of different languages from a foreign language perspective. What we mean by a ‘‘foreign language perspective’’ is the analysis and explication of the use of a particular language in a foreign language setting from the perspective of non-native speakers and / or in relation to other languages. The authors in this issue focus on a variety of languages, including Catalan, French, German, Persian, Russian, and Spanish. In their papers, these languages are usually related, compared and / or contrasted with English or other languages from an intercultural or cross-cultural viewpoint.
