description, when the methods of "sentence grammar" (Satzgrammatik) are transferred in one form or another to the analysis of the text.
As a result, a new "text grammar" is created, using the same conceptual apparatus and the same methods of analysis as the "sentence grammar". Within the framework of this new grammar, first of all, the rules of coherence of sentences are considered, which sheds light on some important structural properties of the text.

With another approach to the linguistic description of the text, the

researcher does not limit himself to considering the surface structure, but tries to determine the patterns of “deep”, meaningful relationships in the text. The general theory of such "text semantics" has not yet been developed.
In the third, communicative (or communicative-pragmatic) approach to the linguistic description of the text, the starting point of the analysis is not syntactic or the semantic structure of the text, and the practical activity underlying it.With this approach, the text is considered as an element of communication, as a special communicative unit. Linguistic structures are of interest to the researcher primarily as a tool for the implementation of the speaker's specific intentions.
