The role of psycholinguistics for language learning in teaching based on formulaic sequence use and oral fluency [PDF]
Psycholinguistics has provided numerous theories that explain how a person acquires a language, produces and perceives both spoken and written language, including theories of proceduralization.

The productive processing of formulaic sequences by second language learners in writing [PDF]
There has been much debate in psycholinguistic research on whether formulaic sequences (FSs) are processed holistically or in a compositional manner.

The Development of Formulaic Knowledge in Super-Advanced Chinese Language Learners: Evidence From Processing Accuracy, Speed, and Strategies [PDF]
The study examined the development of Chinese as a second language learners’ formulaic knowledge through comparing the processing of Chinese idioms versus non-idiomatic formulaic sequences (FSs) by advanced-level learners (ALs), super-advanced learners ...

Language Play with Formulas in an EFL Classroom
Language learners’ play with language can be a useful and effective tool for learning. Since language play generally involves deviating from the norms, one potential source for it can be multiword units of language known as formulaic sequences.

“Me likey!” A new (old) argument structure or a partially fixed expression with the verb like?
This paper explores the current use of the verb like in sequences such as “me likey”. This new use is practically limited to modern variant spellings (likey, likee, like-y and likie) and resembles the original (and now obsolete) impersonal structure of ...

Learning academic formulaic sequences [PDF]
Abstract This paper reports on a classroom-based study that explored the effect of explicit, vocabulary-focused instruction on English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students' recognition, cued output and spontaneous use of academic formulaic sequences (FS).

A recent study by Cordier (2013) suggests that psycholinguistic formulaic sequences (multiword units that present a processing advantage to the individual speaker) may be more prevalent in L2 speakers than previously thought.

Semiclassical trace formulas for pitchfork bifurcation sequences [PDF]
In nonintegrable Hamiltonian systems with mixed phase space and discrete symmetries, sequences of pitchfork bifurcations of periodic orbits pave the way from integrability to chaos. In extending the semiclassical trace formula for the spectral density, we develop a uniform approximation for the combined contribution of pitchfork bifurcation pairs.

THE EFFECT OF DIRECT INSTRUCTION IN FORMULAIC SEQUENCES ON IELTS STUDENTS’ SPEAKING PERFORMANCE
In the light of previous research into the correlation between the acquisition of formulaic sequences and language learners’ fluency gains, this study aims to investigate the extent to which an intensive course of direct instruction in preselected ...
