Pragmatics: Teaching Speech Acts
Tatsuki, Donna H. / Houck, Noel R. / Dantas-Whitney, Maria
Language teachers have long been aware of the devastating effect of learners' grammatically correct, yet situationally inappropriate spoken or written communication. This volume addresses how to raise learner awareness of pragmatic gaffs through research-based, field-tested activities. Teachers are given vital support through worksheets, audio files, transcripts, and answer keys.
