The question is how Japanese language instructions should be organized to enhance students' ability to interpret written materials. In order to shed light on this question, the author adopts C.S. Peirce's theories on pragmatic maxims and abduction and offers the following suggestions. The interpretation of written language is nothing more than the process of abduction (hypothetical inference). Interpretation proceeds by accessing already-acquired knowledge to create hypotheses about the written information encountered. Consequently, improving the ability to construe meanings from written materials means improving the ability to engage in this process of abduction. To this end, the following instructions should be instituted: -Instructions in which a variety of interpretations can be considered and compared. -Instructions in which interpretations are proved on the basis of words, that is, textual information. -Instructions in which the most logical interpretation is chosen from the variety of available interpretations by using the first two instructions above.
