Review
'Despite the complexities of this challenge, however, by centering her analysis precisely at the boundaries of formulaicity, Wray is ultimately highly successful in accounting for a wide range of formulaic phenomena in language.' (Journal of Sociolinguistics 13/4, 2009)
'an extremely stimulating read, and can be thoroughly recommended.' (Modern English Teacher)
'For those interested in a deeper understanding of how formulae relate to discourse analysis, textuality, phraseology, or human and computer language acquisition, Alison Wray's authoritative Formulaic Language: Pushing the Boundaries is a "must cite". (TESOL & Applied Linguistics)
'Language teacher trainers with a side-line in applied linguistics should find this a fascinating read.' (The Teacher Trainer Journal 23:1, 2009)
'The intertwining of theoretical discussion and practical implications makes it a must-read for those who are interested in formulaic language.' (Studies in Second Language Acquisition 31:4, Dec 2009)
'covers a prodigious range of topics...Another notable strength of the book is its simultaneous commitment to both application and theory.' (Applied Linguistics Journal 31:1, Feb 2010)
'...a helpful resource for the promotion of discussions of formulaic language in the classroom.' (Journal of the IATEFL SIG, 33, April 2009)
'...full of the author's genuine thinking and inventive proposals. The intertwining of theoretical discussion and practical implications makes it a must-read for those who are interested in formulaic language.' (SSLA CUP)
