Formulaic Language as a Barrier to Effective Communication with People with 
Alzheimer's Disease
Alison Wray

cognitive and social priorities shape language learning and use...

Automatic Speech Recognition for CALL: A Task-Specific Application for Training 
Nurses
Nicholas R. Walker, Henrietta Cedergren, Pavel Trofimovich, et al.

meaningful communication at the centre of learners' classroom interactions. Yet
