This work employed a quantitative method wherein a questionnaire was administered to 74 second-year English students at the University of Abbes Laghrour University to investigate their views regarding those problems. The findings obtained revealed problems linked to pragma-linguistic, sociopragmatic, and pragmastylistic issues. This is due to learners’ low language proficiency and lack of exposure to authentic materials.enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 United Stateshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/us/Pragmaticscultureintercultural pragmatic breakdownonline communicationnvestigating Areas Of Intercultural Pragmatic Breakdowns In Efl Learners’ Online Communication The Case Of Second-year Students At The Department Of English, University Of Abbes Laghour-khenchelaArticle
