Sumario:The field of language teaching and learning has witnessed many technological developments and made use of them for the increasing and changing requirements of language learners. The change has developed from a traditional written text based approach toward an interactional spoken discourse based approach. This has led the field to search for appropriate sources to close the gap between what is provided in the language course books and what is expected of language learners outside the classroom. Thus, the naturally occurring spoken data collected via tape and video recorders have become the new source for the field. This paper scrutinises the spoken corpora for language teaching and learning and focuses on "I mean" as a spoken grammatical feature and its possible implications into the language classrooms.
