Abstract
Some areas of Pragmatics seem to be valid for all (Indo-European) languages (e.g. Implicature and Presupposition), but others, like Deixis and Speech acts are more language-specific and require changes and adjustment in translation. Some specific issues are considered.
Key words: Pragmatics, Deixis, Speech Acts, Illocution, Locution
