History of English word
"Pragma" in English is an abbreviation for pragmatic (an adjective).

"The word pragmatic has been busy over its more than four centuries of use. Its earliest meanings were "busy," "meddlesome," and "opinionated," but those are now considered archaic uses. The word continues, as it has since the late 19th century, to be used in reference to the philosophical movement of pragmatism (see sense 2). And, as Merriam-Webster Unabridged reports, it also continues to be used in the field of history to describe that which deals with historical events in a way that shows their interconnection. Most often, however, we encounter pragmatic when it is being used to describe people—sometimes ourselves"

"A person who is pragmatic is concerned more with matters of fact than with what could or should be. A pragmatic person's realm is results and consequences." -Merriam-Webster .
