Bilingualism in Second Language Learning: The Pragmatism of Social References to Improve Interactive Skills in Communication
Keywords:
Bilingualism, Pragmatics, Second Language Learning, Interactions, CommunicationAbstract
In most colonized societies, foreign languages hold outstanding positions in education, whereas are distinct from indigenous languages. So, when learning requires a language different from the learners' mother tongue, adopting instructional techniques becomes useful to facilitate communication. As a teacher of bilingual learners in high school, experience has shown that communication is challenging in second language learning. This enables us to adapt pragmatic communication, between education issues and social realities, leading to comprehensive thematics for the collective participation of learners. Using the method of data collected naturally within the communication group, examples that inspire interactive communication strategies are underlined with the data. The objectives are mainly to widen communication skills in second language learning and promote local languages’ understanding academically as foreign languages. Further, these learning skills would allow learners to get open to foreign languages through their natives’.
