Abstract
Drawing from enunciative linguistics (Benveniste, 1966; 1974) and the anthropology of enunciation (Dessons, 2006), this study suggests that both teacher and student discourses are rooted in speaker and language analyst categories. Analysis of dialogues between a teacher and her students in a Portuguese as an additional language classroom revealed two mechanisms: (1) the teacher’s history of utterances, and (2) the learners’ inquiries. Both mechanisms address reorganization of form and meaning based on previous experiences in the language. Importance of language awareness and implications for teacher education are discussed.
