“…Instructional proposals focusing on the L2 pragmatics abound, even if many of them centre exclusively on production of certain speech acts (e.g., HOLMES, BROWN, 1987;OLSHTAIN, COHEN, 1990, 1991TAKAHASHI, BEEBE, 1993;BARDOVI-HARLIG, 1996;NELSON, EL BAKARY, AL BATAL, 1996;MARTÍNEZ FLOR, FUKUYA, 2005; PADILLA CRUZ, 2015b), discourse types (e.g., PADILLA CRUZ, 2013; ECONOMIDOU-KOGETSIDIS, 2015) or (im)politeness (BOU FRANCH, GARCÉS CONEJOS, 2003;MUGFORD, 2008), to name but a few. Some of them agree that learning must be a guided or structured process and integrate acquisitional strategies aimed at understanding how the target feature is produced by native speakers and debriefing its peculiarities, use strategies facilitating opportunities for real and/or simulated practice (COHEN, 2005;USÓ JUAN, MARTÍNEZ FLOR, 2008) and feedback on performance from both instructors and peers (ESLAMI-RASEKH, 2005;KOIKE, PEARSON, 2005). Such a process may be organised into steps through which learners are introduced to the object of instruction, can observe it, reflect on it with a view to understanding it, and, finally, practise (KONDO, 2008;MARTÍNEZ FLOR, USÓ JUAN, 2006).…”
