Zusammenfassung:
Language possesses a unique and transformative power. Its magic becomes evident when individuals generate new ideas, encounter unfamiliar concepts, or construct meaning through active linguistic engagement. This productive potential of language manifests across a range of linguistic domains, including phonetics, lexicology, phraseology, pragmatics, languages for specific purposes, and multilingualism. In the context of language teaching and learning, this magic emerges when language interacts with content, when instructional approaches are tailored to learners' individual needs, and when educators and learners alike step beyond their comfort zones to embrace innovation and take risks. This edited volume brings together a diverse collection of scholarly contributions by Lizeta Demetriou, Bessie Dendrinos, Olga Dobrunoff, Rashit Emini, Douglas Fleming, Thomas H. Goetz, Ourania Katsara, Bernd Klewitz, Katrin Menzel, Torsten Piske, Lea Pöschik, Ronald Kresta, Nikolay Slavkov, Anja Steinlen, and Brikena and Gëzim Xhaferi. The articles span a wide range of linguistic and educational contexts in Europe, North America, and Asia. Together, they offer interdisciplinary perspectives and empirical insights into the multifaceted nature of language and its productive, magical potential.
