Original Abstract

The article focuses on premodification as an effective means of explicit description of reality and the role of specific professional knowledge necessary to decode the implicit information. The authors approach explicitness and implicitness from the pragmatic point of view and describe them as effective strategies facilitating the perception of a specific message. Close interaction of explicitness and implicitness constitute a unique quality of professional discourse.
