This book presents a novel analysis of the learning of motion event
descriptions by Anglophone students of Spanish. The author examines
cross-linguistic differences between English and Spanish, focusing
on the verbal patterns of motion events, to explore how learners
overcome an entrenched first-language preference to move toward the
lexicalization pattern of the additional language. His findings
highlight the gradual nonlinear process Anglophones traverse to
acquire and produce form-meaning mappings describing motion in
Spanish. The author suggests that as motion event descriptions are
not normally the focus of explicit instruction, students learn this
concept primarily from exposure to Spanish. Given its
interdisciplinary nature, this book will be of interest to
researchers working in Hispanic linguistics, cognitive semantics,
and Spanish language learning and teaching.
