Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
This book examines what vocabulary is and how it behaves, how the mind learns and uses it, and the pedagogical issues of teaching and testing L2 vocabulary.
MoreLong description:
This volume examines the area of second language vocabulary studies from three broad perspectives: description, acquisition and pedagogical context. The fifteen chapters are grouped together to achieve a balance between descriptions of what vocabulary is and how it behaves, how the mind learns and uses new vocabulary, and the pedagogical issues of teaching and testing L2 vocabulary. Some of the specific topics addressed in these three general areas include word frequency and vocabulary size, multi-word units, variation between spoken and written language, models of lexical acquisition, first language influences on second language vocabulary acquisition, vocabulary learning strategies, vocabulary and the syllabus, trends in teaching and testing vocabulary, lexical reference sources.
'There is much food for thought throughout, practising language teachers will undoubtedly find Section Three of most immediate value. This book is a worthwhile addition to the Cambridge Language Teaching Library and will attract a wide readership among vocabulary researchers and language teachers.' EA Journal
