TV Comedy and the Teaching of English
McLean, Alan C.
English Language Teaching Journal, 31, 1, 10-14, Oct 76
The conventions of TV comedy, particularly in the two-man comedy team, have a role to play in the teaching of English as a foreign language. They offer situations where the normal language is both natural and repetitive, and where emotional states common to interpersonal communication can be exemplified. (Author/CFM)
