	Since about 20 years linguists attempt to apply the grammaticalisation concept to the description of pragmatic phenomena. In this context some linguists speak about ‘pragmatisation’ – a kind of language change, which concerns the linguistic codification of certain pragmatic contents. The term ‘pragmatisation’ suggests a new process, which runs in opposite direction to the development of grammatical elements. Irrespective of how we define the relation between both processes, this means always a reinterpretation (mostly extention) of the grammaticalisation concept. The present article focus on the question whether such attempts indeed result in a new insight into development of pragmatic units, or lead to terminological confusion by different terming already well described linguistic mechanisms.
