Pragmatic research on ELF has investigated how ELF is used to achieve transactional and interactional purposes of the talk in diverse ELF contexts, using a conversation analytic approach. While findings of existing research highlight cooperative, mutually supportive, and consensus-oriented nature of ELF through the analysis of verbal resources, their adversarial aspects and the interplay of verbal and nonverbal resources are somewhat underexplored in the field of research. This book investigates how ELF is used to manage challenging moments in interactions by using multimodal interactional analysis: Thereby reexamining the notion of cooperativeness and elaborating on situational variation in ELF. Based on a qualitative analysis of audio-visual recordings of casual ELF conversation among friends, the book illustrates how interactants utilize various verbal and nonverbal resources at their disposal. They competitively take the conversational floor by overlapping, disagree with a co-interactant, and complain about something or someone else. Given the focus of the research, the book is highly relevant for researchers and under-/post-graduate students who study pragmatics, conversation analysis, and multimodal interactional analysis.

Описание: This series welcomes book proposals detailing innovative and cutting edge research and theorisation in the field of English as a lingua franca (ELF), in essence, English as the chosen medium of communication among people from different first languages. The unprecedented use of English as an international lingua franca, largely because of its relationship with the processes of globalisation, has led to the realization that conventional attitudes to English and approaches to its study need to be critically examined. This has resulted in a very considerable and fast-growing field of research that is concerned both with the sociolinguistic significance of English as lingua franca as a naturally adaptive linguistic development and with its theoretical as well as applied linguistic implications. ELF, as phenomenon and as study, is not only diverse and emergent, it is also controversial and rapidly gaining in importance. The purpose of the series is to offer a wide forum for work on ELF, including aspects such as descriptions and analyses of ELF; ELF use in a range of domains including education (primary, secondary and tertiary), business, tourism; conceptual works challenging current assumptions about English use and usage; works exploring the implications of ELF for English language policy, pedagogy, and practice; and ELF in relation to global multilingualism. Finally, in line with the subject matter of the series, authors are not required to use native English, but to write in a way that is intelligible to a wide international readership. To our knowledge, Developments in English as a Lingua Franca is the first book series to build this approach into its official policy. Early titles in the series are expected to include the following: Reflexively Speaking - Uses of Metadiscourse in ELF, The Pragmatics of ELF, English as an Academic Lingua Franca, Misunderstandings in East Asian ELF, Culture and Identity through ELF, The Pedagogy of ELF, and ELF and Multilingualism in Europe.
