also: プラグマチスト
noun
Refers to a person who takes a practical, results-oriented approach, often in philosophy or everyday decision-making.
彼は理想論より現実的な解決を好むプラグマティストだ。
He is a pragmatist who prefers practical solutions over idealistic theories.
Borrowed from English 'pragmatist'. The two katakana spellings reflect different transliterations of the English 't' sound.
