In this book, these difficulties are for the first time comprehensively investigated. On the basis of a learner corpus, idiosyncratic collocation use by learners is uncovered, the building material of learner collocations examined, and the factors that contribute to the difficulty of certain groups of collocations identified. An extensive discussion of the implications of the results for the foreign language classroom is also presented, and the contentious issue of the relation of corpus linguistic research and language teaching is thus extended to learner corpus analysis.LANGUAGE ARTS & DISCIPLINESbisacLinguistics / GeneralbisacLanguage and languagesStudy and teachingPhraseologyStudy and teachingLanguages & LiteraturesHILCCPhilology & LinguisticsHILCCLANGUAGE ARTS & DISCIPLINESLinguistics / GeneralLanguage and languagesStudy and teachingPhraseologyStudy and teachingLanguages & LiteraturesPhilology & Linguistics418/.0071Nesselhauf Nadja573512PQKBBOOK9910811830703321Collocations in a learner corpus1057902UNINA
