The most difficult element of communicative competence is discourse competence. According to Webster Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary “Discourse is communication of thought by words”. The Cobuild Essential Dictionary gives the following definition: “Written or spoken communication between people”. In other words discourse is language used in real situation for real purposes, i.e. language as social behaviour. Such a use of language involves interaction (e. g. between participants in a conversation; between reader and writer in a newspaper article; between lectures and listeners) and the combining and relating of utterances. Utterance is any complete unit of language used for communicative purpose. An utterance can be either written or spoken. Interaction is communication between people involving the use of language (e. g. between two people having a conversation; between writer and readers; between speaker and listeners). Coherence is a state or a situation in which all the parts or ideas fit together well so that they form a united whole. Cohesion markers are textual means, signs which make a text a united whole, with the help of which all parts of a text fit together well. For example: parallel grammar structures, ellipses.
