ABSTRACT

Formulaic language refers to a fixed or semi-fixed multi-word combination between words and sentences. Formulaic language covers a wide range, including idioms, speech programs, grammatical structures, various collocations and so on. If college students can use formulaic language reasonably in spoken communication, it means that they can successfully retrieve relevant prefabricated chunks and phrases from their brains. At the same time, the use of formulaic language makes the sentence structure which is outputted by college students more logical, and the expression more fluent and authentic, which to some extent promotes the college students' spoken communication ability. This paper aims to explore the application of formulaic language in college students' spoken English communication, and how learners' psychology and other factors affect the output of college students' formulaic language, thus affecting the communication atmosphere and effect.
