2. SEMANTICS TRASNFER AND ITS IMPLICATIONS
FOR VOCABULARY TEACHING IN SECOND
LANGUAGE
• It is based on the analysis of semantic transfer in second
language (L2)
• Most of specific issues are related to acquisition process.
• Centered on pedagogy issues
• Vocabulary learning strategies
• Analysis the psychological process that determine the L2
vocabulary acquisition

3. A MODEL OF ADULT L2
VOCABULARY ACQUISITION
• Based on the unique learning conditions adult L2.
• L1 and L2 are involved
• Lexical association stage:
 Adult can identify the an orthographic and phonology form in order to understand the meaning
 Meaning and syntax in lemma structure
• Lexical processing and pronunciation:
 Semantic and syntactic information
 L1 participate and use L2 word.
 Lexeme part contains a gradually specification
• Lexical development when lexical knowledge specific to a L2:
 Idiomaticity and influence the L1 translation
 L1 lemma processing in advanced L2 learners.

4. THE SEMANTIC TRANSFER
HYPHOTESIS
• Content in L2 word from the L1.
• L2 is transferred from L1 translations.
• Meaning mapping: vocabulary acquisition
• It transfers the form meaning mapping process.
• Semantic transfers a view of form meaning mapping that
contrast to the assumptions L2.
• Ijaz tested native and nonnative speakers of English, it explains
the understanding of prepositions.
