“…In other words, in the course of L2 learning, grammar develops as a resource for interaction. This converges with findings on other multiword constructions, such as comment on dit [how do you say], as reported in Pekarek Doehler & Skogmyr Marian (2022, this issue; see also Pekarek Doehler & Berger, 2019).…”

“…CA‐SLA in turn offers methodological tools for scrutinizing such situated specifics of L2 learning (e.g., Brouwer, 2003) through its interest in the minute sequential organization of actions and mutual adaptations among participants. Longitudinal CA‐SLA in particular, going back to Brouwer and Wagner's (2004) pioneering observations, has evidenced the development of L2 interactional competence as L2 speakers’ adaptive ability to accomplish social actions, for example repair, story‐telling, and conversational openings and closings (Pekarek Doehler & Berger, 2018; 2019; Pekarek Doehler & Pochon–Berger, 2011, 2015). 1 Such work, however, has remained largely agnostic as to the role of linguistic resources in that development, thus leaving the ground fertile for postanalytic applications of usage‐based SLA.…”

Setting the stage for the central themes and the articles in this special issue, this introduction delineates the epistemological confluences, complementarities, and differences among conversation analysis (CA), on the one hand, and 2 strands of usage-based linguistics, on the other-namely, usage-based secondlanguage acquisition (SLA) and interactional linguistics. This implies depicting how an increased interest in actual usage within the field of linguistics, including usage-based SLA, has converged with the basic assumptions in CA and interactional linguistics: (a) Language use is primordially and primarily situated in social interaction, and (b) language emerges out of social interaction. We scrutinize the grounds for combining the 3 frameworks for investigating second language development, illustrate such combination through the discussion of some of the rare existing studies that integrate these frameworks, and argue for the need to develop the methodological combinations further in order to move toward an ecologically more valid understanding of how language develops out of language use. On that basis, and additionally drawing on the individual contributions to the special issue, we then outline some implications for L2 education.

“…Similar features pertain to Excerpts 5 and 6, which, furthermore, illustrate Malia's increased tendency over time to rapidly resolve her own word searches following COD in ways that are less disruptive for the progressivity of talk than her prior word‐search conduct (see also Pekarek Doehler & Berger, 2019; Skogmyr Marian & Pekarek Doehler, 2022). Both examples come from Semester 3, almost 1 year after the beginning of the recordings.…”

In this article, we bring together conversation analysis and usage-based linguistics to investigate the second language (L2) developmental trajectory of a linguistic construction within the complex multimodal ecology of naturally occurring social interaction. We document how, over the course of 15 months, an L2 speaker's use of the French multiword expression comment on dit [how do you say] diversifies in both form and function. Two types of longitudinal change are observed: (a) The expression expands in its context of use: "Literal" uses are observed initially to request a candidate lexical item but are later also found in requests for confirmation, (b) these literal uses become proportionally less frequent, and the expression progressively routinizes as a marker-like element used for indexing cognitive search and floorholding, and eventually also as a preface to self-correction. This routinization entails erosion in form and meaning, in concert with systematic change in co-occurring bodily-visual conduct, in particular gaze and gesture. By documenting change over time in the functional use and the multimodal delivery of the target construction, the findings evidence the longitudinal development of L2 grammar-for-interaction and showcase how linguistic and bodily resources may interface in L2 development. They also have important implications for language teaching and learning.

“…For longitudinal studies on repair management, that is, L2 speakers' ability to deal with conversational trouble, a number of studies (Balaman, ; Brouwer & Wagner, ; Hellermann, , ; Pekarek Doehler & Berger, forthcoming; Sert & Balaman, ) suggest that L2 speakers change their repair practices both quantitatively and qualitatively as they increase their general proficiency in the L2. Quantitatively, they typically rely more on self‐repair and less on other‐repair over time.…”

“…In addition to the work on L2 speakers' increased capacity to accomplish social actions and activities, some longitudinal studies have examined how speakers develop their interactional uses of linguistic forms such as lexical items and grammatical constructions (e.g., Eskildsen, ; Eskildsen & Wagner, ; Hauser, ; Ishida, ; Jung, ; Kim, ; Markee, ; Pekarek Doehler & Berger, forthcoming; Slotte‐Lüttge, Pörn, & Sahlström, ; Taguchi, ; Hauser, ). Some of these studies track how L2 speakers develop their ability to put to use specific linguistic resources for precise interactional purposes.…”
