This qualitative study investigates the errors committed by Turkish EFL learners and the rate of spelling mistakes to grammar errors in learners' paragraphs. In order to examine these issues, 19 participants studying at a private high school in Turkey took part in this study. The qualitative data were collected through students' paragraphs written…

Although, written corrective feedback (hereafter referred to as CF) is applauded in many writing courses for fostering students' quality writing, its impact on grammatical accuracy in L2 students' writing remains a debated topic. Thus, this study looked into the effect of CF types on L2 students' grammatical accuracy in writing. To achieve this…

This study examined Thai senior high school EFL learners' receptive and productive knowledge of English polysemous phrasal verbs. The research employed the framework developed by Garnier and Schmitt (2015), which is the most widely acknowledged and functional concept of English polysemous phrasal verb knowledge. A battery of tests measuring the…

This study tests the Bottleneck Hypothesis (BH) that functional morphology presents the greatest difficulty in second language acquisition by examining Chinese English as a foreign language (EFL) learners' knowledge of both functional morphological properties and core syntactic properties across three language proficiency levels. Specifically,…

This study examines learner deliberations over their discursive plans during second language (L2) instructional tasks, which we call "intersubjectivity negotiation episodes" (INEs). We argue that these provide essential contexts for negotiations over L2 form-meaning mappings, known as "language related episodes" (LREs). Our…

This study examines the potential effect of mind mapping-based instruction on Jordanian EFL tenth-grade students' use of additive, adversative, causal and temporal conjunctions. A purposeful sample of two tenthgrade sections was drawn from a public school in Mafraq, Jordan. The two sections were randomly assigned into an experimental group of 14…

This mixed methods study draws upon theoretical perspectives from usage-based linguistics (UBL) and variationist sociolinguistics to explore four learners' use of second language (L2) Spanish present tense indicative verbal inflectional morphology (i.e., simple present conjugations). The study compares the frequency and distribution of students'…

This study demonstrates how conversation analysis can illuminate the interactional practices through which the Present-Attention-Co-construction-Extension (PACE) approach to grammar instruction, which involves a guided, inductive co-construction of grammar rules with learners, is realized in the classroom. The data consist of three whole-class…

The present dissertation sets out to investigate the acquisition of variation in future-time expression by English speakers L2 learners of Spanish in a high school setting. I explore the variable use of the morphological future, the periphrastic future, and the present indicative to express the future time in Spanish by the participants. A total…

This study explored the mobile language learning experiences that Taiwanese high school English language teachers created. A total of 119 valid mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) lesson plans from 36 senior high schools in the national mobile learning (m-learning) programme in Taiwan were analysed via content analysis. The results showed…

This explanatory mixed-methods study investigated the use of bilingual students' linguistic repertoire for teaching and clarifying grammar. A repeated-measures design was used in which the quantitative data were complemented with follow-up qualitative data. Data were collected in six treatment sessions and from twenty-five all-male twelfth-grade…

In this study, we investigated Iranian high school students' preferences and beliefs about two types of form-focused instruction (FFI) for teaching and learning grammar, namely isolated FFI and integrated FFI. Using an adapted version of the questionnaire developed by Valeo and Spada (2016), we collected data from a large sample of senior high…
