This study investigates teachers' first language (L1, German) and second language (L2, English) use in the primary English as a foreign language (EFL) classroom in two federal German states.

Bui, Gavin; Luo, Xueya – Studies in Second Language Learning and Teaching, 2021

The present study empirically scrutinizes the fixed natural order of grammatical morphemes relying on a manual analysis of an EFL learner corpus.
