Springer Handbooks in Languages and Linguistics

Saeli, Hooman

This collection explores relevant pedagogical and sociolinguistic topics in the teaching and learning of Persian as a foreign and second language. Owing to the dearth of research in many areas pertaining to the teaching and learning of Persian, this handbook provides empirically-supported insights into various aspects of these areas. While the literature on teaching and learning Persian is growing, the field lacks a cohesive collection on Persian as a foreign/second language. The book addresses issues pertaining to the standardization and validation of teaching and assessment methods, which remain under-explored in the contexts of teaching and learning Persian. It also covers the teaching of Persian pragmatics, the use of corpora, as well as a range of different areas within linguistics, including phonetics, prosody, and historical linguistics. This comprehensive collection contributes substantially to the scientific study of many aspects of teaching and learning Persian which have been neglected for decades. A must-have text in Persian language pedagogy and Persian sociolinguistics, it an essential book for those in teaching and learning in Persian language programs worldwide.
