Contrastive Analysis at the Crossroads of Linguistics and Foreign Language Teaching.

Esser, Jurgen

International Review of Applied Linguistics in Language Teaching, v18 n3 p181-91 Aug 1980

Since linguistics and foreign language education meet in the domain of contrastive analysis, it should be possible for these two professional areas to cooperate in the development of pedagogically useful grammars. Such grammars should concentrate on traits of particular languages and on functional linguistic style. (JB)
