Dear all,<br>last week I asked the list to pool their knowledge about research carried out on DDL with phrases rather than single words. I didn't expect to find much, having already trawled through the literature, but the picture is pretty bleak. To put it bluntly, with very few exceptions, DDL has not been used to teach phrases.<br>
However, from this depressing picture comes a ray of light:a gaping hole in the literature that is begging to be filled. Short of research projects to assign your students? Run a little dry of inspiration recently? Anything you do in this field will be new! (and a welcome addition to knowledge of MWU acquisition).<br>
<br>Below is a list of the references I was able to collect which had direct relevance to applied linguistics (teaching or learner corpora); individual respondents have been thanked individually, but thanks again (you know who you are)<br>
