Drawing on usage-based approaches to the study of language learning—including recent research on mobility in interaction, embodied approaches to cognition and communicative action, and innovations in place-based language learning in the wild—this article uses methods from ethnomethodological conversation analysis to investigate video recordings of 3 English language learners playing an augmented reality game that advocated for environmental stewardship. The analysis focused on 1 aspect of the game, an oral report about different green technologies, which was repeated 3 times due to technical difficulties. Analysis reveals emergent interactional dynamics that included (a) the use and creative reuse of multiword expressions, and (b) aligned interbodied cooperative practices that together supported (c) the building of a discourse structure for making oral reports that were part of the game narrative. The analysis highlights the semipermeable, collaboratively produced, and emergent nature of grammar for social action. Implications for pedagogy include (a) the consideration of structured unpredictability in language task design, and (b) a (re)conceptualization of language structure and language development as both an individual and group achievement.

为合作行动而进行的跨机构交流的协作动员

借鉴基于使用的语言学习研究方法——包括最近关于交互移动性的研究、认​​知和交际行为的具体方法以及野外基于地点的语言学习的创新——本文使用民族方法学对话分析的方法，调查 3 名英语学习者玩增强现实游戏的视频记录，该游戏提倡环境管理。分析集中在比赛的1个方面，口头报告了不同的绿色技术，由于技术困难重复了3次。分析揭示了新兴的交互动态，包括（a）多词表达的使用和创造性重用，(b) 协调一致的跨机构合作实践，共同支持 (c) 建立话语结构，以制作作为游戏叙述一部分的口头报告。该分析强调了用于社会行为的语法的半渗透性、协作产生和涌现性。对教学法的影响包括 (a) 在语言任务设计中考虑结构化的不可预测性，以及 (b) 将语言结构和语言发展作为个人和群体成就的（重新）概念化。
