Abstract This is a pseudo-experimental study that investigates the effectiveness of form-focused instructional techniques to facilitate the acquisition of lexical phrases. A group of Japanese university students, enrolled in a communicative EFL course, were guided to use and learn lexical phrases through controlled and reconstructive oral repetition tasks. The overall effect of combined repetition tasks on the participants' acquisition of lexical phrases and the extent to which controlled repetition might mediate the effectiveness of reconstructive repetition practice were evaluated. The results indicated that the combination of controlled and reconstructive repetition, contextualized in communicative EFL instruction, facilitated their acquisition of lexical phrases at a statistically significant level. On the other hand, controlled repetition enhanced the short-term retention of target phrases learned through the reconstructive repetition tasks and communicative tasks but did not contribute to long-term acquisition
