Details | Lingua franca (LF) communication research is critical to addressing the challenges and opportunities posed by our increasingly interconnected and linguistically diverse world. English is at the forefront of LF scenarios owing to its global prevalence and international significance. In contrast, Japanese as a lingua franca (JLF) has a different dynamic, unfolding primarily within specific communities and contexts. This study explores the pedagogical implications of JLF, providing educators with practical insights into preparing L1 students for meaningful engagement in JLF scenarios, thereby promoting intercultural understanding and effective communication. |
