The comprehension, retention and production of idiomatic
expressions is one of the most difficult areas of the lexicon for
second language (L2) learners, even very advanced students, to
master. This book investigates this under-researched and
interesting aspect of language acquisition, shedding light on both
conventional uses of idiomatic expressions as well as creative
variant forms. The chapters in the book delve into different
aspects of idiomatic mastery: students' comprehension of
canonically used idioms in both their first and second language;
the effects of multimedia and visualization techniques on learners'
comprehension and retention of L2 idioms; students'
misinterpretations of L2 idioms; L2 learners' comprehension of
creative idiom variants and their use of idioms in free composition
writing.
