2.3.6. Keith Johnson lists three processes involved in the use of a language: scanning
the pragmatic information; evaluation where by the utterance can be compared to the
speaker’s aim and the identification of any discrepancy, and then the formulation of the
next utterance. The formulation of utterances and the processes of scanning and evaluation
must be made quickly within the real time. ‘‘The ability to do this is what we mean
generally by fluency in a language ….’’ says Keith Johnson (Communicative approaches
and communicative processes, Psycholinguistics and Language Teaching Methodology,
pg 425).
