In this thesis, I address the lack of focus on what are the most common challenges that learners of Japanese experience in their oral interaction and the link between these challenges and their cause. I explore a number of pragmatic challenges that learners of Japanese as L2 encountered during their study abroad programmes or work placements in Japan. Following McKenney and Reeve's (2012) model for conducting design-based research, the data draws on open-ended questionnaires, semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions with 57 learners of Japanese at two higher education institutions in Ireland to determine the challenges they encountered in their oral interaction with L1 speakers. The challenges which present themselves in the data are examined through Relevance Theory, a cognitive-pragmatic approach that is somewhat unexplored in interlanguage pragmatics research. I demonstrate that challenges at the production and interpretation level arise due to difficulties in decoding and inference of implicit and explicit aspects of communication. These challenges are the result of current instructional practices in the L2 classroom, where there is an excessive focus on linguistic input, an unawareness of learners' own pragmatic competence and a lack of inferential processes being taught. The findings lend support to the need to enhance pragmatic competence among L2 learners through domain-specific cognitive processes. I argue that ideas developed in Relevance Theory can be particularly beneficial to the teaching and learning of pragmatics in the L2 classroom, in particular for oral interaction. I present a four-process pedagogical framework to help instructors activate learners' pragmatic competence. This pedagogical framework is based on Ifantidou's (2014) definition of pragmatic competence. I also outline general guidelines and concrete activities for L2 instructors to help narrow the gap between linguistic form and proposition expressed as well as enhance learners' production and interpretation of both explicit and implicit meaning.

The book focuses on investigating pragmatic learning, teaching and testing in foreign language contexts. The volume brings together research that investigates these three areas in different formal language learning settings. The number and variety of languages involved both as the first language (e.g. English, Finnish, Iranian, Spanish, Japanese) as well as the target foreign language (e.g. English, French, German, Indonesian, Korean, Spanish) makes the volume specially attractive for language educators in different sociocultural foreign language contexts. Additionally, the different approaches adopted by the researchers participating in this volume, such as information processing, sociocultural, language socialization, computer-mediated or conversation analysis should be of interest to graduate students and researchers working in the area of second language acquisition.

The second section focuses on the full range of emotion-related aspects in linguistics, semiotics, and communication theories. The next section focuses on cultural studies and language and emotion; emotions in arts and literature, as well as research on emotion in literary studies; and media and emotion. The final section covers different domains, social practices, and applications, such as society, policy, diplomacy, economics and business communication, religion and emotional language, the domain of affective computing in human-machine interaction, and language and emotion research for language education.

An understanding of sociocultural context is crucial in second language learning – yet developing this awareness often poses a real challenge to the typical language learner. This book is a practical language teachers’ guide that focuses on how to teach socially and culturally appropriate language for effective communication. Moving beyond a purely theoretical approach to pragmatics, the volume offers practical advice to teachers, with hands-on classroom tasks included in every chapter. Readers will be able to: · Identify possible causes of learner errors and choices in cross-cultural communication · Understand second language acquisition theories that support their classroom practices · Develop a pragmatics-focused instructional component, classroom-based assessments, and curricula · Help learners to become more strategic about their learning and performance of speech acts · Incorporate technology into their approach to teaching pragmatics This book aims to close the gap between what research in pragmatics has found and how language is generally taught today. It will be of interest to all language teachers, graduate students in language teaching and linguistics, teacher educators, and developers of materials for teaching language.
