Studies in French Applied Linguistics invites the reader to adopt a broad perspective on applied linguistics, illustrating the fascinating multifaceted work researchers are conducting in so many various, inter-connected subfields. The six chapters of the first part are dedicated to the first and second language acquisition of French in various settings: first language acquisition by 'normal' children and by children with Specific Language Impairments; second language acquisition in Canadian immersion settings, in North Africa, as well as literacy issues in Guadeloupean Kr?y?l and in new technologies. The five chapters of the second part explore the contribution of French in various subfields of applied linguistics such as a neurolinguistic approach to phonology, natural language processing and CALL, phonological and lexical innovations in the banlieues, language planning and policy in Quebec, as well as the emerging field of forensic linguistics from an historical perspective.
