One of the most astonishing features of human language is its capacity to convey information efficiently in context. Many theories provide informal accounts of communicative inference, yet there have been few successes in making precise, quantitative predictions about pragmatic reasoning.

In this paper we argue that bidding in the game of Contract Bridge can prootably be regarded as a micro-world suitable for experimenting with pragmatics. We sketch an analysis in which a \bidding system" is treated as the semantics of an artiicial language, and show how this \language", despite its apparent simplicity, is capable of supporting a wide variety of common speech acts parallel to th...
