Annotation

This paper discusses how the differing (especially pragmatic) L2 gains, -in casu acquisition of L2 address terms-, of two Australian learners of Indonesian during a short stay abroad, are related to their L2 identity growth. Some particular factors that may affect L2 pragmatics learning through study abroad are also reviewed.
