Research areas concern (a) the role of the first language in the acquisition of \u003ci\u003ebe\u003c\/i\u003e by Cantonese second language learners; (b) the question if properties associated with \u003ci\u003ebe\u003c\/i\u003e remain persistently problematic for Cantonese speakers; (c) developmental stages of the acquisition of \u003ci\u003ebe\u003c\/i\u003e; (d) the relationship between morphology and syntax; and (e) pedagogical implications. \u003cbr\u003e No published L2 research has attempted an in-depth theoretical and empirical treatment of both acquisition and teaching subject matters in one single work. This work helps bridge the gap between acquisition theory and language pedagogy research, benefitting not just language learners but language teachers around the world, and all those who would like to witness a collaboration between second language acquisition theory and second language teaching practice in general.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mable Chan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3034313071\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783034313070\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic P\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/29\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 427\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 6.10w x 0.90d","brand":"Mable Chan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49097119826175,"sku":"9783034313070","price":153.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/acquisition-of-be-by-cantonese-mable-chan-9783034313070","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
