Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan | Number Of Pages: 288 | Publication Date: 2004-09-04 | ISBN-10: 1403902313 | PDF | 1 Mb

Vocabulary richness, including lexical diversity and use of rare words, has an important role in assessing proficiency, diagnosing progress and testing theory in the study of language development. This book first reviews different methods for quantifying how vocabulary is deployed in spontaneous speech and writing, and then introduces an alternative approach which can assess overall lexical diversity, measure morphology development and compare the development of different word classes. The new approach is illustrated by its application to first and second language learners.

Jean Aitchison “Words in the Mind: An Introduction to the Mental Lexicon, 2nd Edition " 
Blackwell Pub | 1987-09 | ISBN: 0631144420 | 288 pages | PDF | 19,1 MB

This book deals with words, and how humans learn them, remember them, understand them, and find the ones they want. In brief, it discusses the structure and content of the human word-store or 'mental lexicon', with particular reference to the spoken language of native English speakers. Since the first two editions of "Words in the Mind" were published, work on the lexicon has exploded. This is reflected in this new edition, which contains substantial additions. One new chapter has been added on layering and meaning change, and several others have been considerably expanded. The notes and suggestions for further reading have been updated, and numerous new references have been included. The book remains accessible in style and easy to read for both undergraduates and non-specialists.
