Research groups

MOB – Meta-research on bilingualism

The researchers in this group are united by a shared interest in research on bilingualism research. We analyze scientific fields such as bi- and multilingualism research and Swedish as a Second language with a view of grasping, for example, patterns of recruitment or the histories of central concepts and their effects within and beyond the fields.

Social aspects of multilingualism (SAM)

This research group explores the social dimensions of multilingualism, with the aim of understanding the complexity of multilingualism in society and how multilingualism influences and is shaped by social, cultural, and political contexts. We also investigate second language acquisition from social and multimodal perspectives.

Interaction and Multilingualism (Interfler)

Interfler is one of the regular research groups in the section Swedish and Scandinavian Languages in the Department of Swedish and Multilingualism. The group consists of researchers with interests in interaction and multilingualism, both in everyday life and different public domains such as education and working life.

About me

I am an Associate Professor of Bilingualism with a specialization in social dimensions of multilingualism and second language learning. My main research interest is in the interface between second language learning and social interaction. I use Conversation Analysis, typically with a multimodal and longitudinal perspective, to investigate how people develop their interactional competence in a second or foreign language.

I am also series editor of Routledge Advances in Second Language Studies, which publishes groundbreaking research on second language learning processes and practices.

I mainly teach courses in multilingualism and second language learning at undergraduate and graduate levels. I regularly supervise degree projects in Swedish as a second language and in SLA and multilingualism.

In several completed and ongoing projects, I have studied the development of interactional competence in a second language (see some of these research projects below). My monograph about the development of interactional competence in second language French was published in 2022 and is available as Open Access at Routledge:

The Development of L2 Interactional Competence

I also work on first-language interactions (primarily Swedish and French). During several years, I was part of the research program IVIP, Interaction and Variation in Pluricentric Languages – Communicative Patterns in Sweden Swedish and Finland Swedish, which investigated communicative differences between Swedish used in Sweden and Swedish used in Finland.

The IVIP research group

In the international research environment Syntax and the body: The structuring of language in multimodal sense-making, we investigate how grammatical and bodily resources interact in various languages and social situations.

The research environment Syntax and the body


Developing an L2 grammar-for-interaction: Elaborations on interactional competence

How do L2 speakers' interactions shape their evolving grammar? This project explores how changes in interactional practices influence grammar-for-interaction over time. Analyzing 80 hours of L2 French conversations, we reveal the role of linguistic resources in developing interactional competence, offering fresh insights into SLA dynamics.
