Abstract
This chapter reviews research that can be labeled as conversation analysis for second language acquisition (CA-for-SLA or just CA-SLA). After first considering the appropriateness of the label CA-SLA, it discusses the earliest influences of CA on the field of SLA. It then delves into the development of CA-SLA following the publication of Firth and Wagner. This discussion is divided into four parts, which look at CA-SLA research on L2 user identity, ethnomethodological respecification of key concepts from SLA, embodiment in L2 interaction, and L2 interaction outside the language classroom. The chapter then selectively reviews longitudinal, micro-longitudinal, and cross-sectional research on learning and change, which are grouped under the label of vertical CA-SLA. It ends with a discussion of future directions for CA-SLA.
