A pragmatic approach to language

Voco Chat focuses not just on the words we use to communicate, but also the reasons we communicate and how we interact using language. This is also called pragmatics.

Voco Chat is based on a comprehensive review of The Pragmatics Profile for People who use AAC (Martin, Small & Stevens, 2017) recommendations, all about how we communicate and participate in conversations.
