This comprehensive collection delves into the evolution of intercultural communication strategies through Virtual English as a Lingua Franca (VELF). It explores the intricate ways in which we navigate the pragmatic realm of today's technology-driven globalized world. The volume specifically focuses on analyzing transmodal, trans-semiotic, and transcultural discourse practices in online spaces, offering a contrasting perspective to existing research on ELF (English as a Lingua Franca) communication, which has primarily concentrated on unpacking the formal aspects of ELF communication in face-to-face interactions.
The chapters within the book delve into the characteristics and sustained nature of these practices through non-verbal semiotic resources, drawing upon data from a diverse range of empirical studies conducted across the globe interactions. This exploration prompts readers to reflect on their own experiences in online settings and the challenges associated with VELF. Furthermore, the book provides educators in these contexts with valuable analytical resources to enhance the bridge between formal and informal learning.
Highlighting the dynamic complexity of online intercultural communication in the twenty-first century, this book serves as a valuable resource for students and scholars in applied linguistics, language education, digital communication, and intercultural communication. It sheds light on the evolving nature of language use in digital spaces and offers insightful perspectives on the challenges and opportunities that arise in this interconnected world.
