Strategic competence as a research subject in linguistics

Abstract

The article discusses the strategic competence as an object of study in the research on the theory of language comprehension, linguistic, psycholinguistic, sociolinguistic works of foreign and local scientists, as well as in the special literature on languages teaching. Strategic competence is regarded as a basic component of communicative competence of the secondary language personality. The definition of strategic competence is based on knowledge about the ability of the secondary language personality to assimilate non-native language and the ability to use strategies of verbal behavior formed in the learning process.
