this empirical study reports on a cross-linguistic analysis of the overarching issue of l1 lexicalization regarding two (non)-interventionist approaches to vocabulary teaching. participants were seventy four juniors at the islamic azad university, roudehen branch in tehran. the investigation pursued (i) the impact of the provided (non)-interventionist treatments on both sets of (non)-lexicalize...

The current study investigated the effects of oral code-mixing and glossing on L2 vocabulary learning. To this end, 60 EFL learners studying at pre-university school were given a pre-test to make sure that they did not have any prior knowledge of the target words. Based on their scores in the pre-test, 36 pre-university students were selected and divided into three groups, including two experim...

The current study investigated the effects of L1 and L2 glosses on L2 vocabulary retention in incidental and intentional settings. To this end, 100 intermediate Iranian female learners of English as a foreign language at Soroosh High School were given a pre-test to make sure that they do not have any prior knowledge of the target words. Reading passages with three different glossing conditions ...

This critical literature review provides study details for 36 studies examining the effect of glossing language acquisition among English learners (ELLs). Useful tables include specificity participants, gloss types, target vocabulary items and text information about all studies. An analysis these reveals that is an effective means to enhance reading comprehension ELLs. However, language—whether...

This paper argues that glossing is an essential stage in the borrowing of writing systems. I use the term “glossing” in a somewhat extended sense to refer to a process where a text in one language is prepared (annotated, marked) to be read in another. I argue that this process of “vernacular reading” – reading a text written in the script, orthography, lexicon and grammar of a more prestigious ...

Interlinear glossing is a type of annotation of morphosyntactic categories and crosslinguistic lexical correspondences that allows linguists to analyse sentences in languages that they do not necessarily speak. Automatising this annotation is necessary in order to provide glossed corpora big enough to be used for quantitative studies. In this paper, we present experiments on the automatic gloss...
