概要 This paper examines the English-language interactions of a multinational group of Asian healthcare professionals on a short-term training programme. As the group was diverse in terms of cultural, linguistic, and educational backgrounds, from the outset it was not anticipated that the practice of English language among the participants would exhibit the kinds of regularities that often obtain in a local, long-term setting for English use. Rather, no assumptions were made except that the English-language interactions would be, by definition , instances of English as a lingua franca.
