As a reading teacher, Tom Cobb had always believed that derived words were not particularly…

Brian Strong – Reading Matrix: An International Online Journal, 2024
While previous research has provided insights into vocabulary learning through extensive reading, the differential effects of word frequency and word class on active form and passive meaning word recognition remain less understood. By evaluating learners' post-test performance in active form recognition and passive meaning recognition, this study…

Pellicer-Sánchez, Ana – RELC Journal: A Journal of Language Teaching and Research, 2020
Students in academic contexts are expected to engage with large amounts of reading and they frequently meet unknown words and phrases in those reading materials.

Michael Markey – Reading in a Foreign Language, 2022
Our aim here is to investigate reading in a foreign language from a multilingual perspective. Much research has focused on first- and second-language reading, especially the important role played by strategy deployment in helping readers to make meaning from texts in different languages. Less emphasis has been placed, however, on how bilinguals…

Lin, Debbita Tan Ai; Pandian, Ambigapathy; Jaganathan, Paramaswari – Reading Matrix: An International Online Journal, 2017
Effective dictionary use facilitates reading and subsequently, vocabulary knowledge development. Reading, especially extensive reading, has time and again been proven to be highly effective for both receptive and productive lexical development. Possessing control over a large vocabulary is essential for language competence--be it L1, L2, or L3.…

Boutorwick, T. J.; Macalister, John; Elgort, Irina – Reading in a Foreign Language, 2019
One avenue for developing second language (L2) vocabulary knowledge is through Extensive Reading (ER). ER can provide opportunities for incidental learning to occur. Class time is often too restricted for sufficient attention to deliberate learning (Hunt & Beglar, 2005) meaning ER is important for L2 vocabulary development. This article builds…
