Abstract:

Applied linguistics is the best single label to represent a wide range of
contemporary research at the intersection of linguistics, anthropology,
psychology, and sociology, to name a few. The Handbook of Japanese Applied
Linguistics reflects crosscurrents in applied linguistics, an ever-developing
branch/discipline of linguistics. The book is divided into seven sections,
where each chapter discusses in depth the importance of particular topics,
presenting not only new findings in Japanese, but also practical implications
for other languages. Section 1 examines first language
acquisition/development, whereas Section 2 covers issues related to second
language acquisition/development and bilingualism/multilingualism. Section 3
presents problems associated with the teaching and learning of foreign
languages. Section 4 undertakes questions in corpus/computational linguistics.
Section 5 deals with clinical linguistics, and Section 6 takes up concerns in
the area of translation/interpretation. Finally, Section 7 discusses Japanese
sign language. Covering a wide range of current issues in an in an in-depth,
comprehensive manner, the book will be useful for researchers as well as
graduate students who are interested in Japanese linguistics in general, and
applied linguistics in particular.
