In the process of second language acquisition, the ability to interact effectively is critical. But what does it mean to be interactively competent? This book addresses this question by presenting research on the development of interactional competence among learners of Japanese as a second language. Qualitative data collected on learners studying abroad in Japan is evaluated to explain changes in their interactional competence and provides specific insights into the learning of Japanese. The situated analysis of multiple data sets generates meaningful interpretations of the development of interactional competence and the learner-specific factors that shape developmental trajectories. Moreover, the context of the research provides insights into the types of learning resources and experiences that study abroad provides to assist learners in their progress towards becoming a competent speaker in the target community.

This book addresses the topic of interactional competence in the area of learning Japanese as a second language. It presents data collected from learners studying abroad in Japan to explain developments in their interactional competence as found in their use of speech styles and co-construction of an utterance. The book also offers insights into the types of learning resources and experiences study abroad offers to assist learners' progress.

Recenzijos

Written by a distinguished applied linguist, this book describes the development of interactional competence by learners from a wide variety of backgrounds studying abroad in Japan. These individuals learn not only the forms of a new language but how their new language creates identities of them in social situations, some of which the learners desire and some of which their interlocutors find strangely impolite. Through her innovative study of how interactional competence develops, the author paints an optimistic picture of how language learning develops through language use. -- Richard F Young, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA This novel work examines the development of interactional competence among L2 Japanese learners studying in Japan for one semester, focusing on their use of oft-undervalued, yet significant interactional resources: style-shifting and incomplete sentences. Case histories of four of the learners further reveal what contributed to their development. This book is undoubtedly a valuable contribution to those teaching Japanese or researching L2 acquisition. -- Noriko Iwasaki, SOAS, University of London, UK This book is essential for language learners and researchers, especially learners acquiring a second language in a study abroad context. Each chapter explores and explains clearly step by step how the author analyzed the process of second language acquisition. This study mainly discusses interactional competence focusing on speech style, and style shifting and incomplete sentences in the Japanese language. A study abroad setting was also considered as facilitator of second language acquisition in this study.  -- Lisda Nurjaleka, Kanazawa University, Japan * LINGUIST List 27.3429 *
