| Description | Foreign language learners need not only internalize language forms, but also learn to adapt these and other resources in response to the locally emergent communicative needs and circumstances (e.g. Pekarek Doehler, 2010). During the data session we will examine one part of this process between two (pre)intermediate EFL learners. In one of the classroom recordings a student, Karolína, struggles with turning the talk over to her peer, which results in her asking for the English phrase “and you?” The same expression is then recycled several times by Karolína. For this data session I will bring a videoclip and a multimodal transcript following Mondada’s (2019) conventions. During the session I would like to focus on the language and embodied resources that Karolína employs when asking her peer a question, and, specifically, on the ways that she adapts the “and you?” phrase. |
