Part I. Usage-based development of language across the lifespan. A multimodal approach to the development of negation in signed and spoken languages : four case studies / acquisition of conventionalized indirect speech acts in English and German / Part II. The corpus-aided, usage-based study of learner language. A friendly conspiracy of input, L1, and processing demands : that-variation in German and Spanish learner language / Part III. The experimental study of usage-based processing and learning. Can English-Spanish emerging bilinguals use agreement morphology to overcome word order bias? / Part IV. The examination usage-based language in a medical context. Patterns of interaction in doctor-patient communication and their impact on health outcomes / by Aliyah Morgenstern, Pauline Beaupoil, Marion Blondel, Dominique Boutet, and Fanny Limousin. Why don't you just learn it from the input? : a usage-based corpus study on the -- by Ursula Kania. Prepositional phrases as manner adverbials in the development of hebrew L1 text production / by Gilad Brandes and Dorit Ravid. Negative constructions in non-literate learners' spoken L2 Finnish / by Taina Tammelin-Laine and Maisa Martin. How do multilinguals conceptualize interactions among languages studied? : operationalizing perceived positive language interaction (PPLI) / by Amy Thompson -- by Stefanie Wulff. Measuring lexical frequency : comparison groups and subject expression in L2 Spanish / by Bret Linford, Avizia Long, Megan Solon, Melissa Whatley, and Kimberly Geeslin. Article omission : towards establishing how referents are tracked in L2 English / by Monika Ekiert. Measuring L2 explicit knowledge of English verb-particle constructions : frequency and semantic transparency at two proficiency levels / by Helen Zhao and Fenfen Le -- by Silvia Marijuan, Sol Lago, and Cristina Sanz. Miniature artificial language learning as a complement to typological data / by Maryia Fedzechkina, Elissa L. Newport, and T. Florian Jaeger -- by Diana Slade, Christian M.I.M. Mathiessen, Graham Lock, Jack Pun, and Marvin Lam. Toward a model of multilingual usage / by Michael Achard and Sarah Lee.
Usage-based linguistics, which is currently very popular, bases its understanding of language on two key points: Languages are cognitive-social constructs (id est, learned vs genetically endowed), and, in order for communication and meaning to happen, speakers must find a way to meet/understand each other, overcoming various differences (lexicon, social, register, et cetera) to arrive there. In this book, high-level contributors combine research from various usage-based perspectives to explore these questions: How do proficient speakers accomplish 'mental contact' or communication through the available semiotic linguistic resources they share with other members of their discourse community? How do young children learn to accomplish this? And how do speakers of multiple languages learn to accomplish this across languages?
