Abstract:
Note: This is the paperback edition of a previously announced book.
This volume attempts to address an issue that deserves further attention on
the part of language acquisition researchers: that of intercultural
learners in instructed language contexts. Given the fact that most speech
communities where such learning takes place are at least bilingual, and the
idea that English is studied for the purposes of communication among people
from different cultures, the book focuses on English learners as
intercultural speakers. In so doing, the volume brings together three main
research areas: those of the study of English as a lingua franca, the
development of communicative competence and the use and acquisition of a
language beyond a second one in instructed contexts.
This book is for researchers with an interest in the field of
second/foreign language acquisition and use, scholars examining learner
variables in instructional contexts, and scholars adopting a
sociolinguistic perspective in the study of oral discourse and languages in
contact.
Linguistic Field(s): Applied Linguistics

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations
can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax
payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your
financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny.
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
