- This 190-page monograph of six chapters is the result of an extensive research effort: Halenko was sole author of Chapter 5 (‘Pragmatic competence’, 25 pages) and co-authored Chapter 1 with Jones and Byrne (‘What is a successful speaker of English?’ 32 pages). Halenko reviewed the other chapters as co-author. This publication draws on the collection and analysis of a large body of material, including the Speech Act Corpus of English (‘SPACE corpus’), a corpus that Halenko devised from her own data. The corpus, which was developed over several years, features almost 40,000 words from over 100 English learners.
