| Abstract: | Linguistic landscapes (LL) can be described as the visual representation of language and other semiotic resources in public and private spaces. Given their omnipresence, they offer a unique opportunity for educators to connect English learning with the real world and its authentic usage. This article explores what LL are and provides practical strategies for incorporating them into teaching not only for language learning but also to enhance language awareness, foster critical literacy, and celebrate linguistic diversity. |
