This book offers a comprehensive investigation into advanced
students' knowledge of vocabulary in their L1 and L2. As a
cross-sectional study, it examines the quantitative aspects of
students' vocabulary knowledge through parallel tests of upper
secondary level vocabulary, specialised vocabulary, and advanced
vocabulary in both their L1 and L2. It also, primarily in
qualitative terms, investigates students' L1 and L2 knowledge of
polysemous words, lexical fields of near synonyms and false
friends. Knowledge of derivative forms, idioms, proverbs,
idiomatically used prepositions and multi-word verbs offer insights
into both the breadth and depth of students' L1 and L2 vocabulary
knowledge. Finally, it considers the extent to which students'
results can be attributed to differences between inferencing skills
in their L1 and L2. In each subfield, the pedagogical implications
of the findings are discussed. This book will be of interest to
teachers and researchers focusing on the teaching and learning of
vocabulary.
