Vocabulary in a Second Language: Selection, Acquisition, and Testing (Converging Evidence in Language and Communication Research)

Most of the contributions that have been selected for this volume are papers that were presented at the Second-Language Vocabulary Acquisition Colloquium, which took place at Leiden University in March 2002, and which was organised under the auspices of the European Second Language Association (EUROSLA) by the editors of this book. This Colloquium was sponsored by the University of Haifa, the Universiteit Leiden Center for Linguistics (ULCL), the Leids Universiteits Fonds (LUF), and the Universiteit van Amsterdam.
