New quantitative methodology and the development of corpus and
experimental linguistics tools have recently made researching
lexical comprehension and production more accessible. While several
tools and data sets are available in English (Coh-metrix, CELEX)
and a few other languages, the development of resources and
empirical research is still lacking in Spanish. This volume brings
together original empirical research and theoretical perspectives
that examine lexical development in Spanish L1, L2 and L3, with a
focus on different teaching approaches and textbook coverage of
Spanish lexicon in L2 curricula and the use of corpus linguistics
in methodological investigations. Some questions addressed include
the role of lexical development in mapping grammatical acquisition
phases, the potential transfers of L1 to L2 lexical abilities, the
effect of explicit vocabulary learning techniques in L2, how
affective meaning modulates L2 acquisition, or how a typological
understanding of lexical organization can help in teaching more
effectively the lexicon of a language, among many others. The book
offers an overview of what is currently being done in the field of
Spanish lexical acquisition through a myriad of approaches and
topics.
