Reviews

For students of second-language learning, here is a book that will broaden perspectives and give new insights. Reporting on a number of original studies, whose focus is Hungarian and Slavic learners, it spans a wide range of topics, from the nature of the bilingual mental lexicon to the processes involved in accessing L2 lexis. Essential for anyone interested in how we learn, store, access and use vocabulary in a second language. Professor Howard Jackson, UCE Birmingham, UK Second language acquisition is getting over from the art side to the science side . The present volume belongs to a new sphere of experimental linguistics: it is half-way between pure psycholinguistics and applied linguistics. This has been demonstrated by nine research papers focussing on the lexicon in SLA. Authors investigate these issues in East Central Europe (with a state of art paper written by an Irish expert) keeping in mind the geographical and historical features of their countries: Hungary, Croatia, and Poland.
