Classroom language is the routine language that is used on a regular basis in the classroom, such as giving praise instructions, such as "Take out your books" or "Please sit down." This is language that teachers and students are used to hearing, but it takes time to learn this part of a language when teaching it. Knowing these language basics reduces the amount of time students are forced to use their mother tongue and increases the amount of time they spend using the target language; it creates a more authentic language classroom environment. When attempting to incorporate classroom language into a lesson, teachers frequently encounter difficulties. The difficulty often stems from the fact that many second language teachers learned the language after childhood and thus are not exposed to authentic classroom language.
