This book looks at request behaviours in a significant EFL population - Chinese-speaking learners of English. It will draw on recent literature, such as politeness theories and cognitive models for interlanguage pragmatics development, as well as placing special emphasis on situational context and formulaic language to provide a more fine-grained investigation. A range of request scenarios has been specifically designed for this project, from common service encounters to highly face-threatening situations such as borrowing money and asking a favour of police officer. Our findings on Chinese-style pragmatic behaviours and patterns of pragmatic development will be of value to cross-cultural pragmatics researchers, TESOL professionals, and university students with an interest in this area of study. 410 0$aPragmatics & beyond ;$vnew ser., v. 207. 606 $aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching$xChinese speakers 606 $aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching$zChina 606 $aLanguage and culture$zChina 606 $aLiteracy$zChina 606 $aSecond language acquisition$zChina 615 0$aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching$xChinese speakers. 615 0$aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aLanguage and culture 615 0$aLiteracy 615 0$aSecond language acquisition 676 $a428.0071/0951 700 $aWang$b Vincent X$01702965 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808477203321 996 $aMaking requests by Chinese EFL learners$94087869 997 $aUNINA
