Abstract
Majority of senior secondary students, studying in public and govt. schools, in New Delhi, do well in their written tests but fail to communicate effectively with others in spoken English, even in a very simple conversation .After years of compulsory English language study, students can successfully pass the secondary and senior secondary English exam, but they cannot apply appropriate spoken English in required situation. These language learners have developed a large repertoire of lexical and grammatical knowledge, but are often unable to apply that knowledge in real communication, because they have limited pragmatic knowledge, let alone pragmatic competence. The development of the ability to use English appropriately in a given communicative situation is essential if language learners are to achieve communicative competence. This research article provides strategy to investigate pragmatic awareness among ESL learner in New Delhi.
