November 20, 2016 11:00 am Sunday

English Grammar, read it as Priscriptive Grammar, opines that the onus of communicating what one wants to communicate without any ambiguity is on the Speaker/Writer. Pragmatics (more popularly known as Descriptive Grammar) opines that a certain degree of empathy from the Listener/Reader is required for a Communication Event to result in a Win-Win for both the Speaker and the Listener or the Writer and the Reader. This Workshop on English Grammar Vs. Pragmatics is all about letting the participants know how a balance can be struck between the two opposing viewpoints. This Workshop is useful for anyone from whichever walk of life he/she has come from. And, it is FREE.
