再论二语研究中的“重铸”定义

Re-examing the Definitions of“Recast”in L2 Research

在二语习得研究中,一般将"重铸"视为隐性负反馈。事实上,这样的定位不但造成分类混乱,而且无法比较相应研究结果。重新审视"重铸"的定义,有利于澄清模糊认识,全面了解"重铸"的本质特征以及有效开展后续研究。

Recasts are generally defined as a form of corrective feedback or an implicit form of negative feedback in L2 research, which causes the category problems and leads to the fact that the relative effects of recasts cannot be compared with that of other types of feedback on acquisition. Re-examing recasts will not only help to clarify ambiguous thoughts about recasts but also help the re- searchers to understand the nature of recasts comprehensively in the future research.
