Abstract Chapter 8 explores the 399 formulaic sections of our texts. The epistolary frame is a fixed set of formulae, the presence of which marks a text as a ‘letter’. The chapter is divided into five parts: Section 8.1 introduces the concept of a formula and highlights the differences between the Greek and Coptic epistolary frames ...

Formulaic Language in Language Socialization
Annual Review of Applied Linguistics, 2012This article reviews recent research on the roles of formulaic language in language socialization theory and research from the point of view that formulaic language is a chunk of language (e.g., one word, string of several words) repeatedly used in verbal routines and other contexts.

The Mental Lexicon, 2014
In recent years, psycholinguistic studies have built support for the notion that formulaic language is more widespread and pervasive in adult sentence processing than previously assumed. These findings are mirrored in a number of developmental studies, suggesting that children’s item-based units do not diminish, but persist into adulthood, in keeping ...

Formulaic Language in L1 Acquisition
Annual Review of Applied Linguistics, 2012The recognition that speech formulas play a role in first language acquisition—that children reuse sequences of words taken directly and seemingly unanalyzed from the input—goes back to the earliest days of the field. Until fairly recently, however, such formulaic language was considered part of an early and soon-superseded stage of development.

Is there a formula for formulaic language?
Poznan Studies in Contemporary Linguistics, 2015AbstractThis paper focuses on detecting and measuring traces of "formulaic language". For this purpose, we test a number of computational formulae that quantify the degree to which a text type incorporates inflexible sequences of words. We assess these candidate indices using a number of reference corpora representing a wide variety of text types, both

Formulaic Language and Language Teaching
Annual Review of Applied Linguistics, 2012This article reviews the concrete effects that the theoretical findings on the formulaic nature of language have had in instructed second language acquisition (SLA). The introductory section includes some terminological comments and a general discussion on the validity of adopting a formulaic approach in second or foreign language teaching.

Identifying formulaic language
2009Identifying examples of formulaic language in text is a non-trivial challenge, but the difficulties can be much alleviated by the use of an appropriate definition. Three types of definition are distinguished. Type (i) lays out an analytic working space. Type (ii) derives from an analysis and represents a theoretical position.
