Discourse Analysis in Language Studies EFL/ESL Teaching and Learning Linguistics and Education Research

Abstract

Abstract Language for specific purposes (LSP) refers to a distinctive approach to language education that focuses on the particular linguistic features, discourse practices, and communicative skills used by target groups. Its success depends on accurately identifying what these features and practices are so they can be taught to students, and this has been greatly assisted since the late 1980s by the emergence of genre analysis.
