Abstrakt

One interlocutor understands the other and makes himself understood by speaking and listening: this is a dialogue; and by "dialogue" I mean every other kind of communication as well, brought about by linguistic means of any kind: phonic and graphic systems, etc., however they are reproduced, and with any number of interlocutors. This will be the subject of my investigation.
