It proves two possibilities： the response types in L1 and L2 of a single individual may be similar, and the dominant language （mostly L1） and the L2 may interfere with each other＇s vocabulary depth and breadth. The result is of great significance for Chinese learners of English.展开更多

It draws great interest to study on the field of psycholinguistics and SLA. This paper focuses on incidental vocabulary acquisition of L2 and explores how to assist learners to reinforce and expand their network of mental lexicon by applying all kinds of mental connection in order to promote the learners to acquire English vocabulary.展开更多

Auditory discrimination can affect reading, spelling and writing. Several studies examined the correlation between auditory discrimination and reading performance. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the importance of auditory discrimination in the acquisition of mental lexicon and consequently the automation of reading in a sample of 101 students in their fourth year of primary education coming from four different schools in Kenitra (Morocco). The results analysis shows that reading scores correlated significantly with the auditory discrimination scores (r = 0.30, p 0.01). This proves that the inability to discriminate words causes a disability to store them in the mental lexicon, which makes it difficult to identify these words at a later encounter. This conclusion is supported by the significant correlation between reading and auditory and visual lexical decision tasks. In this study we were able to emphasize the importance of having good acoustic discrimination capacities for language development. Students who were successful at the auditory discrimination task are more successful at reading. A remediation program based on improving auditory discrimination capacities using the language assessment battery LABBEL could see reading performance improvement in these students.展开更多

The results show that response types vary greatly among the three groups. Of all the responses elicited among beginners, responses of non-relationship type and phonological type take up the leading part. As to the responses made by inter...展开更多

The result shows that there are significant differences in the structure of mental lexicons between Chinese English learners and native speakers. With regard to L1 mental lexicons, Chinese English learners have poorer concentricity of association and weaker association strength. Their association is more dependent on forms. They have no established systematic and stable networks between words. The semantic network in their mental lexicon is underdeveloped. The results of the experiments have some implications for L2 vocabulary teaching and learning.展开更多

However, vocabulary is thought to be the most difficult component of language knowledge for a learner to grasp. Gorman (1979) pointed out that there was evidence showing that as students become more proficient in a second language, problems caused specifically by syntactical variation become less significant (cited in Crow and Quigley, 1985: 499).

It proves two possibilities： the response types in L1 and L2 of a single individual may be similar, and the dominant language （mostly L1） and the L2 may interfere with each other＇s vocabulary depth and breadth. The result is of great significance for Chinese learners of English.
