The L2MSS focuses on the role of the self-concept and motivation in L2 acquisition process.

Are we ready for a super productive day?
My ELT learners, let’s get into something new today 🌿

The language learner is assisted in a new task by a more skilled user who models the learning task.

Can we say differing standards of English such as British English, American English, or Australian English is an example of pluricentric language?

[irem @learnwithirem]

Hey! Good evening 🌇
Ready for a new term?
Here it is!
PLURICENTRIC LANGUAGE:
It is a language with different standard varieties, originating from different states (sometimes from different regions, dialects or communities), without precluding the unity of the language.
