This volume in the ALLC series offers current and soon-to-be
professionals in the ESL / EFL field a comprehensive guide to how
to make the best use of technology to enhance the English language
learning experience. The book has a predominant focus on practical
insights that are based on successful real-life experiences at the
classroom and study program level, including contributions from
teachers in various countries. Nevertheless, there is also a strong
foundation in existing research and literature as they relate to
the needs of English language teachers. To promote reflective and
exploratory practice, there is plenty of 'food-for-thought' for the
reader. Although pre-service and in-service teachers represent the
primary audience, the book is likely to be just as useful for
language program administrators, researchers, curriculum and
materials writers, and e-learning developers.

gazumped in Galveston? 4. Eat aragula in Aberdeen? 5. Go to the
carsey in Cleveland? 6. Get your bangs trimmed in Belfast? This
handy A to Z brings you bang up to date on over 2,000 commonly used
English words that can cause confusion, chaos, red faces and even
cost you money if you use them in the wrong way, in the wrong
country ... especially for business and social purposes. So stick
this guide in your pocket, briefcase or on your favourite
electronic device ... and avoid ever making embarrassing goofs in
this international English of ours, ever again. * (1.Yes, a stiffie
is a formal invitation card. 2.Yes, as long as you called it fitted
carpet. 3.Possibly: gazumping is a real estate term. 4. Yes,

The third volume in a four-part language course, this textbook
enables students to become competent in reading and writing Burmese
script. Most students find it helpful to begin learning the script
at the same time as they start on the spoken language, but this
volume can be used independently if preferred. In addition to lists
of words for reading and writing practice, presented in a series of
short graduated lessons, Okell includes sample texts from Burmese
materials such as product labels, newspaper headlines, and maps.
Appendices on handwriting and cursive forms, display fonts, the
Burmese names of the characters, Burmese alphabetical order, and
common abbreviations round out the book.One of the challenges of
learning a non-roman script language from traditional course books
is that the use of the roman alphabet to describe sounds is not as
effective as hearing the sounds. The extensive audio files that
accompany this volume allow the learner to hear and produce the
sounds corresponding to the symbols. Language professors and their
students or those learning Burmese on their own will appreciate the
accessible approach and the manageable size of the lessons of the
very practical textbooks in this series.

Learner book, conveys the authentic pronunciation, especially
important to readers from outside Scotland. It is suitable as an
introductory course or for those interested in reacquainting
themselves with the language of childhood and grandparents. There
are dictionaries and grammar books but this is the first-ever
language course. The book assumes no prior knowledge on the
reader's part. Starting from the most basic vocabulary and
constructions, the reader is guided step-by-step through Scots
vocabulary and the subtleties of grammar and idiom that distinguish
Scots from English.
This book explores the acquisition of tense and aspect by adult
second language learners of nine target languages. The author
focuses on the association of form and meaning in learners'
emerging system of temporal expression. The book provides a survey
and synthesis of studies from five perspectives: the
meaning-oriented approach, acquisitional sequences, the aspect
hypothesis, the discourse hypothesis, and the effect of
instruction. In addition, original longitudinal and cross-sectional
studies on the acquisition of English by the author illustrate each
of the perspectives and explore the importance of research design
and analysis in acquisition research.
