okay pragmatics is the- is the high level right
                you got semantics you have your- your
                utterance meaning 
Yeah
which is like  uh I don’t know she shut
           the door right 
Yeah 
Now that has absolutely no meaning  
           outside a context
yeah 
so that’s your utterance meaningyou
          have your expression meaning right 
Mm hm
so she shut the door if you said
          that in a church laughter from a third person
          you’d have   a meaning for the church 
          an or or you have a   speci- specific
          meaning 
okay 
now   the pragmatics is the next
          level of uhm  but we yeah we
          don’t study pragmatics so I don’t
          know but you would yeah        
hhhhh ha ha ha hi hih
THERE’S A THERE’s 
okay 
like you said they’re living in a
          tent  would be a-  something 
okay 
more along the lines of to our
          particular project 
hey are you doing a straight linguistics
          degree
yeah 
Third year
uh second year  
second year
 Yes but I’m doing third year subjects
          this year I hum

when I saw semantics I just couldn’t resist  
yeah well at 
that’s 
and   so what have you done   what
          other subjects are you doing this
          semester 
ahm conversation analysis and Chinese 
are 
Yeah
That’s cool did you study at schoolor
No I have no Chinese experience
          except for at uni 
Aha 
second year Chinese yeah
so is it  is it easy or
          like what
it’s hard 
‘cause the  ‘cause  I 
I 
Really
If you practise them yes   because
          you can   bring your own you can-  
          think of them eh as  in English third person’s laughter
yeah-
d-    do you recognize them or do you-  
          actually look at the pictures and  
          get a meaning from them or do you
          just whada-
What’s  interesting is when you st-
          is when you talk Chinese   there’s so many
          ahm homonyms and homographs and
          and that 
          But you have to think of the
          character to get the meaning
