This book examines key issues in theories of what language is and
what happens in the mind during second language acquisition (SLA),
inspiring readers to think in new and exciting ways about language
learning and teaching. Chapters, written by both established and
rising star scholars, provide cutting-edge insights and new
empirical findings on major topics of formal and cognitive
linguistics, psycholinguistics and second language development, and
offer a coherent, wide-ranging, reader-friendly examination of
learner-internal factors in SLA. The first section of the book
focuses on issues that are pertinent to our understanding of
language acquisition, particularly in relation to syntax. The
second section comprises empirical chapters on syntax, the lexicon,
phonetics/phonology and language production in English and other
languages. These chapters refer to theories and frameworks from
within SLA to enable the reader to grasp the key questions and
issues that are currently relevant. The final section focuses on
research relating to how second language (L2) learners make
transitions from one stage of development to the next; it covers
state-of-the-art psycholinguistic research concerning how L2
acquisition occurs in real time, and includes discussion of models
of L2 development both in and out of the classroom.
