Understanding Spoken Language
Brown, Gillian
TESOL Quarterly, 12, 3, 271-83, Sep 78
Understanding spontaneous speech is a very difficult task for many foreign students. They must be taught to use all the ethnographic cues available to enable them to predict the likely content of a text. They must predict not only the factual content of spoken language but also the interactional structuring. (Author/CFM)
