Grounded in a systemic functional linguistic (SFL) approach, this
book applies a contrastive interlanguage corpus-based approach to
investigate the nature and role of L2 intonation and its pragmatic
function in spoken discourse. The volume offers a brief overview of
SFL theories and frameworks, with a clear focus on Halliday's model
of phonology and the proposal of developing a grammar of speech.
Integrating a SFL framework with a corpus linguistic-informed
approach, the book uses this foundation as a jumping-off point from
which to explore the prosodic complexities involved in English
language teaching and learning for L2 learners, highlighting its
various functions as illustrated in examples from the UAM English
Learner Spoken Corpus. A final chapter synthesizes these findings
toward critically reflecting on future directions for the study of
L2 speech prosody. This book will be key reading for graduate
students and researchers in applied linguistics and English
language teaching.
