| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research was to reveal how English L2 learners retain and use collocational knowledge. In 2010, for this purpose, a new real-time logging system was developed to record the writing process on the scale of milliseconds. From late 2010 through early 2011, using the logging system, the participants were then asked to write an essay about school education in one hour and the data were collected. The analysis was conducted from three aspects : the production process, production time, and produced expressions. The results confirm that L2 learners have and use collocational knowledge and indicate the collocations they used were processed as single whole units.
