to functional as well as structural
aspects of language.
- APPROACH
- Theory of
Language
- The communicative Approach in
language teaching starts from a
theory of language as communication.
- In Hymes's view, knowledge and ability
for language use with respect to
- 1. Whether something is formally possible.
2.Whether something is feasible.
3.Whether something is appropriate in
relation to a context. 4.Whether something
is in fact done, actually performed.

function. 3.Interactional function. 4.Personal
function. 5.Heuristic function. 6.Imaginative

competence was found in Canale & Swain
(1980), in which four dimensions of
communicative competence are identified:
- >Grammatical competence,
>Sociolinguistic competence,
>Discourse competence,
>Strategic competence.
- Characteristics of this
communicative view of
language follow
- 1. Language is a system. 2. Interaction
and communication.. 3,Funtional and
communicative uses. 4.. Grammatical
and structural features.
