In linguistic research and analysis, metapragmatics refers to the study of how language users reflect on, represent, and regulate the use of language in communicative contexts ^[1]. The concept concerns linguistic and interactional phenomena through which speakers indicate awareness of communicative practices, interpretive processes, and the contextual conditions governing language use ^[1]. Metapragmatics focuses on the relationship between language and the ways in which participants organize or comment on meaning-making activities, distinguishing it from pragmatics more generally, which examines language use and interpretation without necessarily focusing on speakers’ explicit or implicit representations of those processes ^[2].
