Reviews

It contributes substantially to the domain of educational linguistics, presenting educators and practitioners with valuable insights into the linguistic features of spoken language that, in our view, can help enhance the effectiveness of their pedagogies. ... the book is highly recommended to all researchers and language teachers interested in spoken English learner language.
