It examines the tools we have for assessing the various facets of vocabulary knowledge such as aural and written word recognition, the link with word meaning, and vocabulary depth. These are illustrated and the scores they produce are demonstrated to provide normative data. Vocabulary acquisition from course books and in the classroom in examined, as is vocabulary uptake from informal tasks. This book ties scores on tests of vocabulary breadth to performance on standard foreign language examinations and on hierarchies of communicative performance such as the CEFR. 410 0$aSecond language acquisition (London, England) ;$v45. 606 $aLanguage and languages$xStudy and teaching 606 $aVocabulary$xStudy and teaching 606 $aSecond language acquisition 610 $aL2 assessment. 610 $aL2 vocab. 610 $aSLA. 610 $aSecond Language Acquisition. 610 $aSecond Language Vocabulary. 610 $atesting vocab knowledge. 610 $avocab knowledge. 610 $avocabulary aquisition. 610 $avocabulary. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aVocabulary$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aSecond language acquisition. 676 $a418.0071 700 $aMilton$b James$f1955-$01501418 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780965203321 996 $aMeasuring second language vocabulary acquisition$93728531 997 $aUNINA
