Achieving Understanding: Discourse in Intercultural Encounters: Language In Social Life

Autor Katharina Bremer, Celia Roberts, Marie-Therese Vasseur, Margaret Simnot, Peter Broeder
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 feb 2015
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.
