Current research within the framework of Construction Grammar (CxG)
has mainly adopted a theoretical or descriptive approach,
neglecting the more applied perspective and especially the question
of how language acquisition and pedagogy can benefit from a
CxG-based approach. The present volume explores various aspects of
"Applied Construction Grammar" through a collection of studies that
apply CxG and CxG-inspired approaches to relevant issues in L2
acquisition and teaching. Relying on empirical data and covering a
wide range of constructions and languages, the chapters show how
the cross-fertilization of CxG and L2 acquisition/teaching can
improve the description of learners' use of constructions, provide
theoretical insights into the processes underlying their
acquisition (e.g. with reference to inheritance links or transfer
from the L1), or lead to novel teaching practices and resources
aimed to help learners make the generalizations that native
speakers make naturally from the input they receive.
