L2 Spoken Discourse: Linguistic Features and Analyses
Autor Romy Ghanem, Okim Kang, Maria Kostromitinaen Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 dec 2023
The book offers a comprehensive go-to resource for the description of various features in second language (L2) spoken discourse as well as a guide for ways in which they can be extracted and analyzed. The text aims to accomplish its goal by providing an overview of linguistic features found in L2 acquisition, clarifying evidence-based constructs in L2 speech, and applying various analyses to suggestions for practice. This book brings together various strands of research and application with an emphasis on analysis of speech properties, which can be a gate-keeping function of speech. In particular, its innovative approach lies with the introduction of segmental, suprasegmental, lexico-grammatical, and pragmatic features in the analysis of L2 speech. This approach offers a more comprehensive view of L2 spoken discourse which can be extremely beneficial for L2 research and pedagogy.
Covering the speech of both native and non-native speakers, but with particular relevance for second language acquisition, this book is essential reading for graduate students, teachers, and researchers in applied linguistics, TESOL, and other speech-science related fields.

Notă biografică
Romy Ghanem serves as the Senior Researcher and Curriculum Director of the International Interfaith Research Lab at Teachers College, Columbia University.

Her research interests are speech perception/production, language social psychology/attitudes, L2 pronunciation/intelligibility, L2 oral assessment/testing, and automated scoring/speech recognition.
Maria (Masha) Kostromitina received her Ph.D. in Applied Linguistics from Northern Arizona University. Her research interests lie in the intersection of second language prosody and pragmatics.
