This book presents studies from authors at the cutting edge of
second language vocabulary research, whose output represents much
of the current focus and direction of work in this area. The
authors address various aspects of L2 lexical processing and
explore different models of acquisition, processing and storage.
The studies are linked by the fact that the authors have all
belonged to the same dynamic and influential vocabulary acquisition
research group led by Paul Meara. Alison Wray provides an overview
of how Meara has led this group's research activities in an
innovative PhD programme, and John Read and Paul Nation contribute
a critical evaluation of Meara's wide-ranging contributions to the
field of vocabulary acquisition research. The research studies
presented here are relevant and replicable, offering researchers
and teachers many valuable and critical insights into lexical
processing in second language learners.
This bilingual book provides a detailed overview of the project to
construct a National Corpus of Contemporary Welsh (CorCenCC),
addressing the conceptual and methodological challenges faced when
developing language corpora for minoritised languages. A conceptual
framework is presented for the user-driven design that underpinned
the CorCenCC project, along with a detailed blueprint that can
function as a scaffold for other researchers embarking on projects
of this nature. This book will be of value to those working in
language teaching, learning and assessment, language policy and
planning, translation, corpus linguistics and language technology,
and to anyone with an interest in Welsh and other minoritised
languages. Mae'r llyfr dwyieithog hwn yn rhoi trosolwg manwl o'r
prosiect i greu Corpws Cenedlaethol Cymraeg Cyfoes (CorCenCC), ac
yn mynd i'r afael a'r heriau cysyniadol a methodolegol a wynebir
wrth ddatblygu corpora iaith ar gyfer ieithoedd lleiafrifoledig.
Cyflwynir fframwaith cysyniadol ar gyfer y cynllun wedi'i yrru gan
ddefnyddwyr sy'n greiddiol i brosiect CorCenCC, ynghyd a glasbrint
manwl a all weithredu fel sgaffald i ymchwilwyr eraill sy'n dechrau
ar brosiectau o'r fath. Bydd y llyfr hwn o werth i'r rhai sy'n
gweithio ym meysydd addysgu, dysgu ac asesu ieithoedd, polisi iaith
a chynllunio ieithyddol, cyfieithu, ieithyddiaeth gorpws a
thechnoleg iaith, ac unrhyw un a diddordeb yn y Gymraeg ac
ieithoedd lleiafrifoledig eraill.
Written for students of applied linguistics, this textbook is an
indispensable introduction to the area of vocabulary knowledge. By
linking the latest research to an overview of how the field is
developing, the authors explore how learners handle what they know
in second and foreign language vocabulary, and how they activate
this information. Dimensions of Vocabulary Knowledge: - Offers a
comprehensive investigation of the dimensions that constitute the
word knowledge framework and identifies links between them -
Synthesizes research on individual aspects of word knowledge -
Presents new empirical research findings and considers the
pedagogical implications of these - Provides questions for further
classroom discussion
