Omschrijving
The book investigates how the multiple senses of a Chinese polysemous lexical item are perceived by Chinese native (L1) speakers and second language (L2) learners. It also examines the potential predictors of the acquisition sequence for the selected constructions. The findings contribute to a better knowledge of L2 acquisition of polysemy.
Haiyan Liang lectures in Chinese as a second language and Chinese–English translation and interpreting in the School of Languages and Cultures at the University of Queensland, where she completed her PhD. Her research interests include applied linguistics, cognitive semantics and translation studies. She is also a professional translator and interpreter.
