Interagoj

Interagoj is a concept in the field of linguistics and semiotics, referring to the study of interlanguage, or the language used by individuals who are learning a new language. It was first introduced by linguist Edward Sapir in the early 20th century. Interagoj focuses on the intermediate stages of language acquisition, where learners' language may differ significantly from the target language due to the influence of their native language or other languages they have learned.

The term "interagoj" is derived from the Esperanto words "inter" meaning "between" and "agoj" meaning "actions" or "behavior". It emphasizes the dynamic and transitional nature of language learning, highlighting the complex interplay between the learner's native language, the target language, and the learner's cognitive processes.

Interagoj is not limited to the study of spoken language but also encompasses written language and other forms of communication. It is a valuable tool for language educators and researchers, providing insights into the challenges and strategies involved in language learning. By understanding interagoj, educators can better tailor their teaching methods to meet the needs of their students, while researchers can gain a deeper understanding of the cognitive processes involved in language acquisition.
