THE NATURE AND DEVELOPMENT OF L2 FRENCH

The conference is organised by members of the AHRC funded FLLOC research
project team, with support from the Association for French Language Studies.
It aims to bring together the community of researchers interested in the
study of French as a second language. The plenary speakers will address the

of classroom learners of French (Myles). A number of other papers will

lexical development, discourse). The conference will also propose a hands-on
CHILDES training workshop especially designed for those using or interested
in using the program and its tools to analyse French L2 data.
