Next, we bring to the text repercussions of this philosophical perspective to understanding in Teaching. We emphasize that follow conventional rules socially in public demonstrations of language use it is an indicative of understanding and it is in the articulation between understanding and its manifestation that we may investigate (as a researcher) or evaluate (as a teacher) the students' understanding.
