| Research Abstract |
This research project revealed that living experience in an English-speaking country appears to help Japanese learners of English (JLE) acquire lexical senses of polysemous prepositions that are similar to those of native speakers of English. The research project also found that JLEs have difficulty in appropriately using English articles for individuated abstract and material nouns. This appears to be due to the fact that JLEs’lexical senses of those nouns are often biased via their prejudged senses towards them.
