Abstract
|
:
|
"In this ground-breaking contribution to the study of tourism and languages. Alison Phipps examines what happens when tourists learn to speak other languages. From ordering a coffee to following directions she argues for a new perception of the relationship between tourism and languages, from one based on the acquisition of basic, functional skills to one which sustains and even strengthens intercultural dialogue." --Book Jacket.
