Phraseology is the immanent part of every living language. It is the repository in which cultural and spiritual wealth of every nation is kept. Phraseological units are also frequent expression means that enable metaphoric, brief and truthful verbalization in the process of social communication. Their operation determines the level of Slovak and foreign language knowledge. The text book Phraseology and the manual Slovak-Hungarian dictionary with phraseology exercises are effective teaching aids containing not only theoretical knowledge from Phraseology and illustrative examples from a living language, but also the number of practical tasks. Their use in the process of education significantly participates on gaining language and communication competence.

There are many terms which refer to Polish language and they do not have the same meaning. The differences however, even minor, are particularly important in the area of language learning and teaching for both researchers and instructors (teachers of Polish as a mother tongue and as a foreign language). Not only should they be able to differentiate between various terminological categories but also be aware of their theoretical and practical implications, e.g. what is the function of Polish when it is not the pupils’ first language? what role does it play for its speakers? what is the difference between language learning and language acquisition, between bilingualism and knowledge of two languages? what is semilingualism and diglossia? These issues are closely linked with multilingualism and multiculturalism which in today’s society have become phenomena characteristic of many communities.

The article starts from the notion of the human mind as the main topic of all branches of scientific psychology and specifies its general functions, namely, to represent the external and internal worlds and to influence and control both these worlds. Language is treated here as the best tool or medium to fulfill these functions: representational and pragmatic. A model of language knowledge as a component of the individual human mind is presented. In this model, language knowledge is composed of two competences: purely linguistic competence that fulfills the representational function, and communicative competence with its communicative (pragmatic) function. Each of these competences has its independent biological basis: Universal Grammar (UG) being a biological endowment of linguistic competence and Theory of Mind (ToM) playing the same role for communicative competence. Different genetically-based disturbances are specific for each of these competences, such as Specific Language Impairment (SLI) for language competence and autism for the communicative (pragmatic). The socio-cultural influences on the development of the two competences are realized through the acquisition of meta-linguistic and meta-pragmatic skills.
