概要 Lingua franca (LF) communication, in theory, involves both first language (L1) and non-L1 speakers, bridging linguistic divides through a common medium of choice. However, research focusing on L1 speakers within the LF paradigm remains relatively limited. This study examines the dynamics that Japanese L1 speakers experience as they adapt, communicate, and perceive their roles and behaviors while using their L1 Japanese in an LF context. Drawing upon online JLF interactions and subsequent interviews, empirical data are presented to highlight the distinctive behaviors and perceptions of Japanese L1 speakers in these situations, compared to L1-speaker contexts. The findings provide valuable insights into their strategies and attitudes for effective communication.Furthermore, this study explores the pedagogical implications of these findings, providing educators with practical insights for preparing L1 students for meaningful engagement in JLF scenarios, thereby promoting intercultural understanding and effective meaning negotiation.
