Language resources for Italian: Towards the development of a corpus of annotated Italian multiword expressions [PDF]
, 2016 Napoli, Italy, December 5-7, 2016This paper describes the first resource annotated for multiword expressions (MWEs) in Italian. Two versions of this dataset have been prepared: the first with a fast markup list of out-of-context MWEs, and the second with

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In task‐based language learning, learners have to deal with the challenge of moving the task and the talk concurrently forward. In doing so, they develop sets of task‐relevant, interactional, and multimodal resources. In this study we use multimodal longitudinal conversation analysis to investigate one learner's L2 interactional competence ...

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigated the influence of learner‐ and word‐related variables on L2 vocabulary learning through the word part technique (WPT), a morphological mnemonic designed to strengthen form–meaning associations through knowledge of affixes and stems.

Dictionaries merger for text expansion in question answering
, 2004 This paper presents an original way to add new data in a reference dictionary from several other lexical resources, without loosing any consistence. This operation is carried in order to get lexical information classified by the sense of the entry.

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates how the learner‐related factors of language dominance, encompassing language history, proficiency, use, and attitude, modulate congruency effects in multi‐word unit (MWU) processing among early bilinguals. Seventy Cantonese–Putonghua bilinguals completed lexical decision tasks measuring reaction time and accuracy for ...

Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract This study examined second language vocabulary processing and learning in reading only (RO) versus reading while listening (RWL). 119 English learners read or read‐while‐listening to a story embedded with 25 pseudowords, 10 times each, and had their eye movements tracked.

Unsupervised Paraphrasing of Multiword Expressions
Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: ACL 2023, 2023 We propose an unsupervised approach to paraphrasing multiword expressions (MWEs) in context. Our model employs only monolingual corpus data and pre-trained language models (without fine-tuning), and does not make use of any external resources such as dictionaries.

Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract Studies have explored the relationship between text readability and processing effort in second language (L2) reading—as evidenced by eye movements. However, these studies generally relied on short texts, raising concerns about the validity of the analyzed data. This study reexamined these relationships using open‐source eye‐tracking data from

Multilingual Multiword Expressions
, 2016 The project aims to provide a semi-supervised approach to identify Multiword Expressions in a multilingual context consisting of English and most of the major Indian languages. Multiword expressions are a group of words which refers to some conventional or regional way of saying things.
