标题:Adaptación del discurso del profesor de L2 a la competencia transicional del alumno de nivel elemental María del Carmen Fonseca Mora, María Heliodoro
摘要:Studies about interaction between speakers with more linguistic and communicative competence and speakers who have not yet fully developed their abilities of expression describe a series of modifications in the higher level speaker's speech in order to facilitate communication between them. We will go through the literature to detail the described modifications and establish a parallelism between L1 and L2 adult speech features when they act as linguistic models. We will demonstrate the existence of such adaptations in the speech of a random selection teachers who teach English to Spanish students at the beginning level and describe the students' poor development of understanding and oral expression skills in the Spanish educational system
