Una de las asignaturas es: La comunicación y la **adecuación pragmalingüística**
La traducción literal (pragmalinguistic adjustment) arroja muy pocas referencias. ¿Alguien sabe cómo traducir esta expresión?
Un millón de gracias

pragmalinguistic competency
"Pragmalinguistic competence refers to the ability to use linguistic elements to perform speech acts (Cenzo, 2007)."
The "adecuación" element refers to the skill of using the linguistic elements to perform speech acts appropriately in different situations/contexts. I don't think "adjustment" expresses this. Normally educational text like this talk about skills and competencies.

Cf. José Patrico's suggestion "adaptation"... I agree that this is the intended meaning. The "adaptation" or suitability or appropriateness of utterances in different contexts. This is a specific skill or competency.
