This book is about teaching and learning phrasal verbs in the context of both foreign and second language acquisition. Although both processes differ in terms of the degree to which learners are exposed to the target language through either formal classroom instruction or immersion in the language, the idea underlying this proposal is that both EFL and ESL learners can have similar levels of exposure to the language if the nature of constructions is clearly defined. Thus, in order to create a type of input that promotes category construction through both inductive and explicit instruction, it…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
This book is about teaching and learning phrasal verbs in the context of both foreign and second language acquisition. Although both processes differ in terms of the degree to which learners are exposed to the target language through either formal classroom instruction or immersion in the language, the idea underlying this proposal is that both EFL and ESL learners can have similar levels of exposure to the language if the nature of constructions is clearly defined. Thus, in order to create a type of input that promotes category construction through both inductive and explicit instruction, it is necessary to depart from very different assumptions regarding the nature of mind, cognition, and the human experience with the physical world. For example, I claim that what we call mind is not a brain-only phenomenon but a flux of embodied experiences and agentive selections that are reflected in the linguistic system through the influence of speaker-meaning. This theoretical shift aims to connect Applied Cognitive Construction Grammar (ACCxG) with several disciplines such as psychology, cognitive science, philosophy, semiotics, linguistics, and second language acquisition (SLA) theory, to name a few. Clearly, the book is not programmatic, but aims to introduce a cognitive description of language in the context of pedagogical grammar.
Autorenporträt
Sergio Torres-Martíiacute;nez is professor of cognitive linguistics, semiotics and translation semiotics. Among his main interests are Agentive Cognitive Construction Grammar, Cognitive Semantics, embodiment theory, phenomenology, Wittgenstein's philosophy of language, Peircean semiotics and the cognitive applications of construction grammar (Applied Cognitive Construction Grammar). Current research projects include the conceptualization of construction grammar as an interdisciplinary field of endeavor connecting embodiment theory, neuroscience semiotics and philosophy for the construction of a comprehensive and systematic description of constructional attachment patterns across languages. Central to this research is the need to provide linguistics with a model of the mind that complements linguistic description.
