Críticas:

'Despite the complexities of this challenge, however, by centering her analysis precisely at the boundaries of formulaicity, Wray is ultimately highly successful in accounting for a wide range of formulaic phenomena in language.' (Journal of Sociolinguistics 13/4, 2009)

'an extremely stimulating read, and can be thoroughly recommended.' (Modern English Teacher)

'For those interested in a deeper understanding of how formulae relate to discourse analysis, textuality, phraseology, or human and computer language acquisition, Alison Wray's authoritative Formulaic Language: Pushing the Boundaries is a "must cite". (TESOL & Applied Linguistics)

'Language teacher trainers with a side-line in applied linguistics should find this a fascinating read.' (The Teacher Trainer Journal 23:1, 2009)

'The intertwining of theoretical discussion and practical implications makes it a must-read for those who are interested in formulaic language.' (Studies in Second Language Acquisition 31:4, Dec 2009)

'covers a prodigious range of topics...Another notable strength of the book is its simultaneous commitment to both application and theory.' (Applied Linguistics Journal 31:1, Feb 2010)

'...a helpful resource for the promotion of discussions of formulaic language in the classroom.' (Journal of the IATEFL SIG, 33, April 2009)

Reseña del editor:

Examines how formulaic language (lexical chunks) is used in a variety of real-life situations. Presents a framework for examining the existence and function of formulaic language and tests it extensively against language data within a wide variety of language samples. Formulaic language is a fast-growing area of applied linguistic research, and the author is a key figure in this field. (2008-09-02)
