Sociolinguistic & Sociological Research
“Student perceptions of their experiences have
taught us that their interactions with native
speakers may be far less intense and frequent
than was once assumed…” (Freed, 1998)
![Page 15: The acculturative strategies and experiences of international … · 2020-03-05 · The acculturative strategies and experiences of international students Lee Hawkes Queen Mary, University](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022041916/5e69a8e0ff42ee23382f3a8e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Sociolinguistic & Sociological Research
On US students in Japan:
“…it appears that those who are able to
develop friendships and engage in social
networks tend to acquire more vocabulary than
those who do not.” (Dewey 2008).
