| Abstract: | During the 1970s, praxematics, a new school of linguistics, was created in Montpellier by Robert Lafont and his associates. It developed as a criticism of the structuralist approach to linguistic praxes and as an in-depth study of the problems created by language contact. The aim of praxematics is to understand language practice both as a dynamic production process and as a social process. |
