When
assigning
____________________
meaning
,
the
hearer
assigns
a
____________________
meaning
to
the
utterance
.
This
process
involves
a
set
of
____________________
interpretations
of
the
____________________
strings
that
the
ear
has
perceived
.
In
many
instances
,
literal
and
____________________
meanings
match
.
So
,
for
example
,
if
one
of
your
students
walks
into
your
office
while
you
are
madly
____________________
papers
and
says
she
has
a
question
that
she
would
appreciate
your
answer
to
,
then
says
,
"
Do
you
have
the
time
?
"
the
literal
____________________
(
Do
you
possess
enough
time
now
to
answer
me
?
)
is
____________________
.
However
,
this
process
may
take
on
a
peripheral
role
in
cases
where
literal
meanings
are
____________________
to
the
message
,
as
in
____________________
or
?
idiomatic
"
language
.
If
,
for
example
,
a
stranger
sitting
beside
you
on
a
bus
has
been
silent
for
a
period
of
time
and
then
says
,
?
Do
you
have
the
time
?
,
"
your
appropriate
____________________
is
nor
yes
or
no
but
rather
"
It's
quarter
to
nine
,
"
or
whatever
.
Second
language
learners
must
,
in
such
cases
,
learn
to
go
"
beneath
?
the
surface
of
such
____________________
in
order
to
____________________
correctly
.
