Annotation

A big data set of L1 psycholinguistic norms (Balota et al. 2007) was employed to value spoken L2 English lexical ability in cross-sectional and longitudinal learner corpora. Findings show that L1 psycholinguistic information can index L2 lexical skill and increase across corpora while affixing unique information to our grasp of L2 lexical knowledge.
