Cohesive Devices and Discourse Competence.
Ehrlich, Susan
World Englishes, v7 n2 p111-18 Sum 1988
Examines the development of cohesive discourse among second language learners in light of native speaker discourse norms. Previous studies of cohesion in second language acquisition have failed to consider restrictions on the distribution of cohesive devices in English. Two of these restrictions are discussed.
