Specific procedures for presenting the concept in English are outlined, including a set of sentences using the morphological subjunctive, syntactic subjunctive, and a few formulaic expressions. Then the Spanish subjunctive is introduced, using...

Graphic organizers are widely used in teaching vocabulary and reading in both L1 and L2 classrooms in addition to glossing. It has been indicated by several studies (e.g., Lie, 2016) that students using a mobile-assisted concept-mapping vocabulary learning strategy do better and retain what they have learned longer than students who limit themselves to text-only strategies. The current short article reviews several studies that investigated the use of graphic organizers and their effects on...

The study of systemic functional linguistics has been particularly relevant to the development of an educational linguistics. Recent theory has viewed language as a tool for mapping experience, with semantics and grammar treated as interrelated, not distinct. To the systemicist, one of the greatest theoretical challenges has been how to account for the manner in which text relates to context. The general response has been in the form of register theory. Systemicists tend to differ over their...

Transitivity in the English verb is examined from the perspectives of the linguistic theorist and the second language instructor. English verbs can be assigned to one of six categories: pure intransitives, causative-inchoative verbs, psych-movement verbs, cross-classification verbs, direct object deletions, and pure transitives. Both syntacticians and English as a second language teachers face theoretical problems in determing the boundaries between these categories and defining membership in...
