چکیده مقاله:

Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) has been widely applied in language education since the ۱۹۶۰s,particularly for first language (L۱) learning. However, the idea of representing language meaningpotential as a system network can offer even more value in second language (L۲) or foreign languageeducation. Although early efforts have been made, the uptake of SFL in L۲ contexts has been slowerthan in L۱.This paper explores how system networks have been used in L۲ studies and highlightsopportunities for future research. System networks can be valuable tools in helping L۲ learners grasphow to create meaning in a new language. They offer several applications, such as tracking languagedevelopment, diagnosing problems in learner texts, and guiding the sequencing of L۲ curricula.Additionally, system networks can be used to design exercises, guide learners with visualrepresentations, contrast L۱ and L۲ resources, and enhance translation skills in advanced learners.Byfocusing on these applications, the paper emphasizes that system networks can make significantcontributions to L۲ education. Moving forward, more attention should be given to their potential,particularly in areas of L۲ education that have received less focus but hold great promise for futuredevelopment.
