Abstract
This study compared the effect of the timing of form-focused instruction (FFI) on the acquisition of the past
counterfactual conditional (PCC) and framing expressions (FEs) for English questions. Sixty-three EFL adult learners received a total of six
hours of isolated or integrated FFI on the target features. Acquisition was measured by means of cloze tests and interviews. The results
obtained from a mixed-design ANOVA indicated that the learners in the two experimental groups made significant gains on the two language
measures. A dependent t-test revealed that the two target structures responded differentially to the timing of form-focused instruction. We
discuss some of the theoretical and pedagogical implications of these findings.
