Details | The speakers discussed constructions and modals effectively used in TED talks, all of which seem comparatively easy yet are rather difficult for most Japanese high school students to use. Their nuances are made accessible without intricacy through the use of TED Corpus Search Engine(TCSE). With TCSE’s lively varieties of speeches and texts, the presenters also pointed out its value as a source material for the quality and try to offer a sense of the joy and fun of learning English, thus exploring the possibility of applying the TED corpus to English education. |
