Zusammenfassung:Linguistics' methodological & theoretical apparatus can have undesirable side effects on pedagogical practice. Examples of morphology's undesirable influence on pronunciation are given. The gap between linguistics & pedagogy will grow wider as the former gets more & more abstract: linguistics often leads to the discovery of facts that are pedagogically useful, even though the theory involved is not. Ephemeral or irrelevant theoretical apparatus should not be blindly transplanted into teaching practice. A. Orianne
