摘要: 本文以Web of Science核心合集数据库作为文献来源，运用文献计量学分析工具VOSviewer对2009~2024年国际二语口语能力的研究热点和前沿趋势进行可视化分析。结果显示，2009~2024年间国际二语口语能力相关研究发文量整体呈上升趋势。国际二语口语能力的研究热点主要集中在口语语言特征、口语知识与技能和学习者因素三类主题。研究前沿包括借助技术手段来评估学习者的口语能力、口语的复杂性和学习者的心理因素。期望本研究有助于国内外语教师和研究者了解国际二语口语能力的研究热点和前沿，扩展国际视野，提升研究水平。
Abstract: This study utilizes the Web of Science core collection database as the data source, and employs the bibliometric analysis tool VOSviewer to conduct a visualization analysis of the research hotspots and frontiers of international L2 oral proficiency from 2009 to 2024. The results indicate that the number of publications related to international L2 oral proficiency has shown an overall increasing trend during the period. The research hotspots in international L2 oral proficiency mainly focus on three themes: oral language features, oral knowledge and skills, and learner factors. The frontiers of research include utilizing technological means to assess learners’ oral proficiency, the complexity of oral skills, and learners’ psychological factors. It is hoped that this study will help foreign language teachers and researchers at home understand the research hotspots and frontiers of international L2 oral proficiency, expand their international perspectives, and enhance their research capabilities.
