Congratulations to this week’s Author Spotlight, Larissa Goulart for her excellent article, “Formulaic Sequences and Writing Development in Portuguese as a Second Language”!

This research and write up provides evidence of how formulaic sequences are acquired by learners of Portuguese at different levels, which offers immediately applicable implications for teachers of both Spanish and Portuguese. It may be of special interest to scholars interested in the study of lexical bundles, second language writing and Portuguese as a second language.
