Pronunciation Learning Strategy Chains: A Qualitative Approach
2014
Language learning is a daunting process frequently enhanced by a number of factors, for example, language learning strategies deployed in an orchestrated manner (Oxford 1990).

Vārdnīcas šķirkļi sastādīti atbilstoši potenciālo lietotāju konkrētām primārajām un sekundārajām vajadzībām. Kopumā var secināt, ka, lai atbilstu lietotā…
