Book excerpt: While communication is becoming increasingly multimodal, verbal language and its use in different communicative situations still hold centre-stage in many research circles. The articles in this book explore native and second languages from three vantage points: syntactic structure, their uses in professional settings, and second/foreign language pedagogy. Using different methods and methodologies, the contributions here draw on both theoretical and empirical data in order to investigate a series of language-internal and language-external factors that both account for the structural peculiarities of Romanian and English, and have a bearing on its translatability and learnability by students of English as a second language. Featuring the hands-on experience of teachers and learners in the Romanian context, this volume provides useful insights and illustrative examples of relevance to theorists and practitioners in language and communication-related fields.
