ejall-2283	Bell, Nancy; Pomerantz, Anne	Reconsidering language teaching through a focus on humor	2014	17	.pdf	application/pdf	11348	598	48	Specifically, we present recent conceptions of language and of communication, and discuss how, in light of these, humor and language play can be used to increase learners’ metalinguistic awareness and expand their communicative/interpretive repertoires. In this paper, we contribute to ongoing efforts to re-conceptualize language education in ways that make use of more robust (and less modernist) theories of language and communication.	cache/ejall-2283.pdf	txt/ejall-2283.txt
