Learning academic formulaic sequences [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of English for Academic Purposes, 2015
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).

The Processing of Speech Formulas on Turkish: A Masked Priming Study

open access: yesDilbilim Araştırmaları Dergisi, 2020
Studies have indicated that formulaic sequences are processed significantly faster than newly created phrases; however, the source of this processing advantage has not been sufficiently investigated in the literature. The Holistic Approach justifies this

A preliminary investigation into the use of fixed formulaic sequences as a marker of authorship [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This research unites the theory of formulaic language—prefabricated sequences of words believed to be stored as holistic units—and the practice of forensic authorship attribution with a view to developing a new marker of authorship.

Semiclassical trace formulas for pitchfork bifurcation sequences [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2004
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.

Teaching formulaic sequences in an English-language class: The effects of explicit instruction versus coursebook instruction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This study investigates the relative effectiveness of different teaching approaches on the learning of formulaic sequences. Three comparisons were made in this study: the effects of explicit teaching of formulaic sequences versus teaching embedded in ...

Role of knowledge of formulaic sequences in language proficiency: significance and ideal method of instruction

open access: yesAsian-Pacific Journal of Second and Foreign Language Education, 2018
Formulaic sequences comprise a large body of language and their mastery is supposed to be a key determiner of language proficiency. However, despite their significance in language learning, they are seldom taught in any principled manner in language ...

Formelhaft oder nicht? Die wichtigsten Merkmale der formelhaften Sequenzen

open access: yesGlottodidactica, 2010
Formulaic sequences constitute a large protection of any discourse and, furthermore, they exist in so many forms that it is difficult to develop an adequate definition of this phenomenon.

Summation formulae on reciprocal sequences

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Combinatorics, 2007
Given a sequence \(\{a_n\}_{n\geq0}\) of complex numbers, the reviewer [Eur. J. Comb. 24, 709--718 (2003; Zbl 1024.05010)] introduced its dual sequence \(\{a_n^*\}_{n\geq0}\) with \(a_n^*=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom {n}{k}(-1)^ka_k\), and set \[ A_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{n}{k}(-1)^ka_kx^{n-k}\quad \text{and}\quad A_n^*(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{n}{k}(-1)^ka_k^*x^{n-

The use of psycholinguistic formulaic language in the speech of higher level Japanese speakers of English

open access: yesVocabulary Learning and Instruction, 2017
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.
