Abstract

Four papers by Tomoko Ishii, Emilie Masson, Atsushi Mizumoto and Rachael Ruegg will be presented in morning session of the Second Annual JALT Vocabulary SIG Vocabulary Symposium in Fukuoka, Japan on July 2, 2013. As discussant, it is my pleasure to comment upon each manuscript. These four lexical researchers originate from all over Japan: Tokyo, Fukuoka, Osaka and Akita. The range of their lexical topics is almost as wide: semantically related words, loanword usage difficulties, self-efficacy and autonomy in vocabulary learning, and, lexical feedback on writing. After commenting on each paper in turn, I shall present a few suggestions for their future research.

Keywords: autonomy, commentary, lexical feedback on writing, loanword usage, self-efficacy, semantically related words
