There have been many studies conducted on PV education, and can be gen‑ erally categorized as: analysis of the syntactic and semantic properties of PVs, comparative analysis of non‑native learn‑ ers’ avoidance of PVs, analysis of ESL learner corpora in comparison with native learner corpora, and corpus‑based analysis of PVs in language teaching materials (Jahedi and Mukundan, 2015: 161)2. However, there are few studies that attempt to straddle these different areas of research to offera wider, more beneficial guide to PVs for learners and ed‑ ucators. For example, studies such as Gardner and Davies (2007) and Garnier and Schmitt (2015) offer learners and instructors lists of the most common PVs, which are surely important as a guide for which PVs to study first, but teach‑ ing methods and instruction are outside of the scope of their work. Thus, even if a learner were to obtain such a list, thereis the strong possibility that they would simply attempt to  \nlearn the PVs by memorizing them as whole units. However, as pointed out by Side (1990) and Lee (2012), studying PVsin parts, focusing on the particles, seems to be a more effec‑ tive way to learn them. Though Side (1990) and Lee (2012) are promising studies, both studies only focused on three PV particles, which covers a very limited number of PVs. This paper thus attempts to advance the ideas of Side (1990) and Lee (2012) by using corpus studies, such as Garnier and Schmitt (2015), and cognitive linguistic theory to create a comprehensive list of PV particles that learners can utilize to study a wide ","cbCaitC8yMXVmpe7","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitC8yMXVmpe7","pdf",717849,15,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Review of the Literature","[{\"question\":\"Why are phrasal verbs difficult for EFL/ESL learners?\",\"answer\":\"They are frequent but difficult due to the large number of phrasal verbs and their polysemy, meaning one form can correspond to multiple interpretations.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the study propose for teaching phrasal verbs?\",\"answer\":\"It combines cognitive linguistics with corpus-based research to create a concise yet comprehensive list of phrasal-verb particles and their meanings.\"},{\"question\":\"How does particle-list instruction compare with learning whole phrasal verbs?\",\"answer\":\"Learners taught with the particle list improve more on pre-/post-tests than learners who studied common phrasal verbs as whole entities, and they infer meanings of novel phrasal verbs more effectively.\"}]","Teaching Phrasal Verbs More Efficiently - Using Corpus Studies and Cognitive Linguistics to Create a Particle List | PDF",1792068258,38]
