This study counters the popular assumption that Spanish Heritage Language Learners (SHLLs) on study abroad (SA) in a place of cultural origin can easily adapt and find acceptance due to the linguistic and cultural resources they bring with them. Our study builds on previous work to illustrate a more nuanced and complex story of desires for…

Kobayashi, Yoko – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2023

The present study examines how…

Mac Lochlainn, Conchúr; Nic Giolla Mhichíl, Mairéad; Beirne, Elaine – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2023
Learning a language has become more accessible online butrelatively-few applied studies have explored the implications of technological advances, and the learners who use them (Chik and Ho 2017. "Learn a Language for Free: Recreational Learning among Adults." "System" 69: 162-171, 163). This mixed-methods study explores…

Buckingham, Lyndsay R.; Fernández Álvarez, Miguel; Halbach, Ana – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2023
This article aims to contribute to the explanation of why bilingual education (CLIL) may reduce the differences in motivation and English proficiency commonly seen between students from different SES backgrounds (Shepherd and Ainsworth 2017). From a mixed-methods approach involving a questionnaire and focus group interviews, fourth year Secondary…

Qiu, Yixi; Zheng, Yongyan; Liu, Jiaqi – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2023

McInerney, Erin – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2023
The many permutations of spoken English have called for an interrogation into the notions of 'standard English' and 'native accents'. Despite their problematic nature, these terms remain commonly used, and familiarity with 'standard', inner-circle varieties of English is typical among L2 English speakers, differences in education and language…

Framed…

Riccardo Amorati – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2023
Due to the 'global English bias' in the field of L2 motivation, many motivational constructs have been primarily investigated in relation to learners of English. One of these, international posture, has been recently found to hold some relevance to LOTE students. Despite this, no research has examined comparatively similarities and differences in…

Tajeddin, Zia; Mostafaei Alaei, Mahnaz; Moladoust, Elahe – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2023

However, scant research has examined imagined communities of practice in the context of English as an international language (EIL). The present study adopted a mixed-methods…

Gomashie, Grace A. – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2022
The younger generations are considered one of the principal agents in the maintenance or shift of any language. In the cycle of the language maintenance, children learn their mother tongue, and pass it on to the future generations. The cycle is broken when they no longer speak the mother tongue. The language choices they make are particularly…

Watson Todd, Richard; Pojanapunya, Punjaporn – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2022
Students' attitudes towards native English speaking teachers (NESTs) and local English teachers has been a fertile area of research for many years, but the commonly used surveys focusing on students' explicit attitudes have been criticised because of the influence of prejudice. An alternative is to use social psychology instruments such as the…
