Setting the stage for the central themes and the articles in this special issue, this introduction delineates the epistemological confluences, complementarities, and differences among conversation analysis (CA), on the one hand, and 2 strands of usage-based linguistics, on the other—namely, usage-based second-language acquisition (SLA) and interactional linguistics. This implies depicting how an increased

Visualizing Emergent Turn Construction: Seeing Writing While Speaking Mod. Lang. J. (IF 7.5) Pub Date : 2022-03-03 TIM GREER, ZACHARY NANBU
This study draws on multimodal conversation analysis to emically account for moments in second language (L2) English interaction in which speakers appear to be visualizing text as they talk. One way they do this is by slotting out elements of a turn-in-progress in the air, shifting their hand in a slotting gesture from left to right as they say each word to display to their recipient that they are

Collaborative Mobilizations of Interbodied Communication for Cooperative Action Mod. Lang. J. (IF 7.5) Pub Date : 2022-03-03 JOHN HELLERMANN, STEVEN L. THORNE
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

L2 Classroom Input and L2 Positionally Sensitive Grammars: The Role of Information-Seeking Question Sequences Mod. Lang. J. (IF 7.5) Pub Date : 2022-03-03 JOAN KELLY HALL
Evidence from usage-based studies of second language (L2) acquisition reveals that a main source of L2 learners’ developing grammars is the L2 input to which learners are regularly exposed. What learners develop from their extended engagement in the sequences of actions comprising the input is not an acontextual system of grammatical units but rather thoroughly social, positionally sensitive grammars

Combinations and Connections: Reaching Across Disciplinary Boundaries Mod. Lang. J. (IF 7.5) Pub Date : 2022-03-03 DIANE LARSEN–FREEMAN
The data-rich articles in this special issue invite readers to consider how grammar and multimodality enact social practices. In particular, they propose a reconceptualization of grammar, moving beyond an autonomous system of items and combinatorial rules to demonstrate how grammar is an embodied resource for social interaction. In this discussion, I build on this important reconceptualization of grammar

Learning Grammar for Social Action: Implications for Research and Language Teaching Mod. Lang. J. (IF 7.5) Pub Date : 2022-03-03 ARJA PIIRAINEN–MARSH, NIINA LILJA
The articles in this special issue contribute to understanding the interactional grounding of language learning by scrutinizing how patterns of language use emerge and get routinized as dynamic resources for accomplishing actions in co-constructed interaction. Their findings problematize how grammar is represented in second language (L2) teaching materials and have important implications for future

As second language (L2) research adapts to the dynamics of multimodal instruction, researchers are exploring the role of captioning and textual enhancement (TE) on learner development. The present experiment assesses the differential effects of textually enhanced captions on learners’ elicited imitation of L2 Spanish grammar. Twenty-eight English-speaking intermediate L2 Spanish learners saw 3 videos

We used a data set with n = 1,603 learners of foreign languages (FL) to develop and validate the short form of the Foreign Language Enjoyment Scale (S-FLES). The data was split into 2 groups, and we used the first sample to develop the short-form measure. A 3-factor hierarchical model of foreign language enjoyment (FLE) was uncovered, with FLE as a higher-order factor and with teacher appreciation

This study explores the pragmatics of aviation English (AE) as a lingua franca in radiotelephony (R/T) communications primarily between aviators and air traffic controllers worldwide. AE is a crosslinguistic register used by aviation professionals who do not necessarily share their first languages and cultures. Accordingly, mutual intelligibility is the ultimate goal, as in English as a lingua franca
