It is TRUE that a pragmatist explicates the meaning of terms according to their or the users.

A philosophical tradition known as pragmatism rejects the notion that cognition serves to describe, portray, or mirror reality and instead views words and thought as tools and instruments for prediction, problem-solving, and action. Pragmatism assert that it is best to evaluate the majority of philosophical subjects—including the nature of knowledge, language, concepts, meaning, belief, and science—in terms of their actual applications and achievements.

In the 1870s, pragmatism first emerged in the US. The philosophers Charles Sanders Peirce, William James, and John Dewey are frequently cited as its founders. Peirce outlined it in his frugality maxim in 1878: "Take into account how the things in your idea will actually work. The object is then entirely in your conception as you perceive it in terms of those effects."
