This book adopts a cross-sectional approach and mainly focuses on one of the core pragmatic constructs, formulaic/pragmatic routines, in addition to components put forward by Roever (2011) and Taguchi (2013). It actively integrates multidimensional pragmatic modalities—including both production (initiating and responding) and reception (recognition, comprehension, and perception), together with learners’ cognitive processes—rather than one or two types of task modalities. Focusing more on the Chinese EFL context instead of Japanese or European L1 learners, it also takes advantage of an emerging instrument, the computer-animated elicitation task, for data collection based on authentic oral responses and to avoid “coached” responses. The socio-cognitive approach, proposed by the famous linguistic expert Prof. Istvan Kecskes, is subsequently applied to conduct an in-depth analysis of the data. Hence, the book introduces a new and fruitful theoretical perspective to the traditional L2 pragmatic research field.

Dr. Yuqi Wang is a postdoc at Beihang University, where he conducts L2 pragmatic research with a team of leading international scholars. To date, Dr. Wang has published in several leading international and Chinese journals, including Pragmatics and Society and Foreign Language World. In addition to managing various research projects and being awarded numerous national scholarships, he recently co-edited the Chinese translation of Peter Grundy’s Doing Pragmatics with Commercial Press, a top publisher in China.
