Second Language Pragmatics cover

Taguchi and Roever present the latest developments in second language pragmatics research, combining acquisitional and sociolinguistic perspectives. They cover theories of pragmatics learning and research methods in investigating pragmatics, linking these with findings on the acquisition of second language pragmatics and with practice in teaching and assessing pragmatics. Discussing pragmatics in the context of multilingual societies and diverse contexts of use, they offer a broad perspective on this growing area.

The book is solidly grounded in scholarship and offers a thorough review of key aspects of second language pragmatics research. Despite its comprehensive nature, it is clearly written and should be accessible to non experts. * Zsuzsanna I. Abrams, Journal of Contrastive Pragmatics *
