Meeting Description:

We are glad to announce a Call for Papers for the Seminar ''Pragmatic strategies in non-native Englishes'' to be held at the ESSE-13 Conference in Galway (August 22-26 2016).

Call for Papers:

Research on non-native speech has long been dominated by an emphasis on lexical and grammatical patterns. At the same time the various types of non-native varieties of English have often been treated from these perspectives too. To broaden the scope, this seminar wishes to explore the variety of discourse pragmatic strategies employed in non-native Englishes, encompassing second language (ESL), learner (EFL) and lingua franca varieties of English (ELF). Papers can focus on any pragmatic feature that helps to shape discourse and/or facilitates interaction (e.g. pragmatic markers, politeness phenomena, prosody). The research must be based on corpus data.

Interested authors must submit paper proposals (title and 250 word abstract) by February 28, 2016 to the two convenors:

Lieven Buysse, KU Leuven (University of Leuven) lieven.buysse at kuleuven.be
Jesús Romero-Trillo, UAM (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid) jesus.romero at uam.es

Paper acceptance will be notified by March 31, 2016.
