Vocabulary aspects of advanced L2 French

Abstract: In her overview of research on the advanced L2 learner, Bartning (1997) aims at characterizing the advanced learner variety. This characterization is above all based on morphosyntactic traits. The aim of this contribution is to present additional characteristics of the advanced learner as defined by Bartning (1997), as well as to describe even more advanced levels based on recent research concerning spoken L2 French. More specifically, the main issue under investigation is whether two vocabulary measures, viz.… Show more

“…Only the LS group was nativelike on both high-frequency types and tokens in the Role play and the Retelling task, supporting earlier results that vocabulary distinguishes proficiency levels (cf. Laufer 1995, Forsberg Lundell and Lindqvist 2012, Bardel et al 2012). In the highfrequency range in these two tasks the LS group used significantly more types than the US group, while using a similar number of tokens, which implies less repetition and possibly a wider vocabulary for the LS group.…”

“…In the literature calculations sometimes include only number of tokens (Bardel et al 2012, Lindqvist et al 2013, Forsberg Lundell and Lindqvist 2012, but, as mentioned, in this study the number of types was also included. For instance, on some measurements the NNS groups were nativelike on the number of tokens, but not on the number of types, which is an indication that the NNS group recycled their types more often, implying less diversity in these groups (see Lindqvist 210: 415 for the importance of including types).…”

“…Amount of input and time of instruction are said to be related issues in the sense that, the longer the participants are instructed in the L2, the greater the amount of input they receive. In the same vein, the more input they receive, the more proficient they get and this would be reflected, for instance, in a higher MLUw (Håkansson 2001;Unsworth & Blom 2010;Hawkins & Filipovic 2012;Lundell & Lindqvist 2012. The participants in this study differ in the time they have been instructed in L2 English: 2 years and 4 years.…”
