The Dividing Line between Semantics and Pragmatics

Shu-ying LIU

Abstract



Sense and reference are two very important terms in linguistics. However, adequate importance has not been attached to them. As a result, they are often approached separately or subordinately in the textbooks of linguistics. This essay will discuss the two terms more deeply as a whole and at the same time, reveal their importance, functions and nature.
Key Words: sense, reference, semantics, pragmatics
