| Summary |
"This volume is a collection of papers that show how insights from cognitive-functional linguistics can be applied to studies of acquisition and teaching of Japanese as a second or foreign language ... the book stems from a symposium entitled, 'Cognitive-Functional Approaches to the Study of Japanese as Second Language, ' held on June 21, 2013, in the midst of the once-in-a-century flooding in Calgary, Alberta."--Preface |
