Citations in the corpus

• Presenting figurative idioms with a touch of etymology: more than mere mnemonics? (2007, background): “Students have also been shown to be more likely to remember figurative idioms derived from specific source domains when they are associated with the original, literal usage (e.g. Boers, 2001).”
• Cognitive Linguistic approaches to teaching vocabulary: Assessment and integration (2011, background): “Some studies measured whether participants could remember the meaning of the items (e.g. Verspoor & Lowie 2003), others measured whether they could reproduce them (e.g. Boers 2000a, b), and still others measured both (e.g. Boers 2001).”
