The study can make a valuable contribution to the field of education by providing insights into the development of a new textbook that focuses on pragmatics. It employed a descriptive qualitative research design with the designed textbook for seventh-grade students as the research object, then analyzed using two theories mentioned previously. Based on the findings, the textbook fulfills sixteen criteria proposed by Tomlinson. It can be utilized as a supplement to the study findings and as a learning tool in the classroom as well as this research contributes to Kurikulum Merdeka while also meeting the needs of teachers and students. The combination of viewing and presenting activities can enhance students'comprehension of English as well as their speaking, listening, and idea-organizing abilities in the language. Both viewing and presenting must be seen in the English learning curriculum as crucial skills that complement one another and must be taught in an integrated way. The textbook is also equipped with audio and videos accessed via Android and iOS. Based on those findings, the textbook contributes to the latest curriculum that is Kurikulum Merdeka as a valuable supplementary textbook. Therefore, there are opportunities to conduct additional research on this topic.  \nKeywords: English as Foreign Language, feasibility features, Junior High School, Kurikulum Merdeka, Pragmatics, textbook  \nCite as: Senowarsito, S., Suwandi, S.

Based on Buku Saku Tanya Jawab Kurikulum Merdeka (2022), issued by the Indonesian Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology, Kurikulum Merdeka is a curriculum with a variety of intracurricular learning opportunities, where the content will be more suitable, allowing students enough time to explore ideas and develop skills. This curriculum has been piloted at schools so-called Sekolah Penggerak and is being implemented in the 2022/2023 academic year.
