Description

Understanding Formulaic Language: A Second Language Acquisition Perspective brings together leading scholars to provide a state-of-the-art, interdisciplinary account of the acquisition, processing, and use of formulaic language. Contributors present three distinct but complementary perspectives on the study of formulaic language - cognitive/psycholinguistic, socio-cultural/pragmatic, and pedagogical - to highlight new work as well as directions for future work. This book is an essential resource for established researchers and graduate students in second language acquisition and pedagogy, corpus and cognitive linguistics, psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, and pragmatics.

Reviews

"The most complete discussion of the different facets of formulaic language to date. With so much research on formulaic language having been conducted in recent years, Understanding Formulaic Language provides a much-needed account of cognitive and psycholinguistic, socio-cultural and pragmatic, and pedagogical perspectives on formulaic language. In-depth discussion of the topic by an impressive group of contributors will make the volume a valuable resource for graduate students and researchers."

Stuart Webb, Professor of Applied Linguistics, University of Western Ontario, Canada

"This landmark volume gathers state-of-the-art reviews of research into formulaic language. The chapters are written by leading researchers in the fields of second-language acquisition, processing, transfer, pragmatics, corpus linguistics, humor, prosody, language instruction, instructional technologies, language testing, and EAP. Each contribution addresses key theoretical, methodological, and empirical issues. A must-read for anyone interested in the acquisition, processing, and use of formulaic sequences."

Nick Ellis, Professor of Linguistics, University of Michigan, USA

"Understanding Formulaic Language is a timely book, bringing together some of the best formulaic language scholars to draw together disparate strands within the field into a unified and comprehensive whole. Its particular strength is its succinct presentation of the past, the present, and the future of the field. It is likely to become a standard reference in the area."

Brent Wolter, Professor of English, Idaho State University, USA

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
