Description
Learner Language, Discourse and Interaction offers a comprehensive corpus-based analysis of spoken English produced by language learners. Using large-scale corpus data, McEnery, Clarke, and Brookes investigate how learners produce and navigate authentic spoken discourse, examining patterns of language use, interactive strategies, and communication styles.
This research-driven work combines corpus linguistics methodology with discourse analysis to reveal how learners construct meaning in real-world speaking situations. The analysis covers various aspects of spoken interaction, including turn-taking, repair strategies, and lexicogrammatical features specific to learner discourse. Grounded in empirical evidence, the book provides valuable insights for linguists, language educators, and researchers interested in understanding the characteristics of learner language and how language development manifests in actual communicative contexts.
