INTERCOMPREHENSION: A CONCEPT IN EVOLUTION
Abstract
The paper deals with the interdisciplinary concept of intercomprehension, becoming increasingly of use in today's linguistics, educational science and sociolinguistics. Based on the idea of searching for cues towards comprehension between languages belonging to the same language group, presenting both genetic and typological affiliations, it became a rich source of reflection and a basis for didactic applications. The aim of the paper is to see the evolution of the concept and to identify some of the basic parameters of intercomprehension-based educational practices.
