Résumé anglais This paper recasts the process of learning to use a second language as language socialisation (SLS). But also identifies some limitations of SLS. The social aspects of language learning and use include not only a study of second language interaction but also the wider social outcomes of intercultural encounters. Detailed analyses of encounters between minority workers and gatekeepers from the majority group are used to illuminate the socio-cultural knowledge necessary for SLS. They also shed light on the ways in which minority workers are ideologically positioned in interaction and so on the potentially hostile environment for language learning. The link between SLS and wider social processes is illustrated through Gumperz's work on intercultural communication.
