| Abstract | The purpose of this paper is to review studies in incidental second language (L2) vocabulary acquisition through reading and to show the future directions in this fi eld. First the paper reviews previous empirical studies within the framework of the quality and quantity of vocabulary processing in L2 vocabulary acquisition which thus far has been widely used mainly in the fi eld of incidental L2 vocabulary acquisition research. This paper also focuses on the methodologies used in previous studies for assessing L2 learners� incidental vocabulary acquisition and points out that most of these studies have been conducted without a theoretical framework which could provide the explanation of the phenomena of L2 vocabulary acquisition. The studies reviewed therefore do not inquire about incidental L2 vocabulary acquisition through reading in a systematic manner. |
