Achieving Understanding : Discourse in Intercultural Encounters Hardback
by Peter (Tilburg University) Broeder, Katharina Bremer, Celia Roberts, M.-T. (Department Of Linguistics, University Rene Descartes, Paris V, France) Vasseur, Margaret (Department Of Arts, Law And Social Sciences, Islington College) Simonot
Part of the Language In Social Life series
Hardback
Description
This is a detailed study of understanding in a second language, related to the actual lives of minority workers.
The focus is on everyday interactions between these workers and the bureaucrats of the society in which they are now resident.
It provides an important contribution to the debate about the function of language as a social practice, adding a new perspective to the psycholinguistic and experimental paradigms, currently existing in second language acquisition research.
