Cognitive Linguistic Approaches to Teaching L2 Figurative Vocabulary is designed to familiarize language practitioners with how Applied Cognitive Linguistics can support the effective teaching of figurative vocabulary in a second language. Mastery of figurative language is closely linked to advanced L2 proficiency. Yet, like vocabulary in general, figurative language was long undervalued and often confined to genres such as poetry and rhetoric. Research has since demonstrated its ubiquity in everyday communication.Applied Cognitive Linguistics provides essential tools for teaching figurative language effectively, viewing it not as arbitrary but as motivated and grounded in the interaction between bodily experience and cognition. From this perspective, the book presents a coherent series of sample activities, ranging from CEFR levels A2 to C2, aimed at helping learners better understand and use figurative language in meaningful contexts.
