Well.... together with semantics, these are the two main fields of linguistics dealing with meaning. Semantics is the study of the relations of the signs to the objects to which they relate and pragmatics is the study of the sign-interpreter :)
the best way to explain semantics/pragmatics is to simply say pragmatics consider the use in reality and semantics is more theory based... I mean, they both take reality into account, it's just that pragmatics deal with it more. And yes, a great post!

Thank you for the information. I will learn about linguistics. This is interesting to me
Very nice :)
