APPLIED LINGUISTICS


APPLIED LINGUISTICS

I once did two pieces of research on applied linguistics. The first was about corpus linguistic. I have studied how the extent of students' native language affects their essay writing The second was discourse analysis. In this analysis, I have studied the use of terms, word usage, the structure of the sentence, and presentation style in writing. Both findings of these studies have been presented in two different seminars. Findings of a study on the corpus in a seminar attended by Thailand teachers. According to them, the average student uses their mother tongue to learn English. While the findings of the second study were presented in the pre-university teachers' seminar in Penang.
