Abstract

This article reviews the acquisition of collocations by second language (L2) learners, with a particular emphasis on the role of multimodal input and elaboration in academic lectures. Academic lectures are identified as a significant approach for collocation acquisition in second language acquisition (SLA). Nonetheless, the impact of academic lectures is influenced by modalities of multimedia input and elaboration strategies, with evidence suggesting that while these factors can enhance learning, the risk of cognitive overload may also lead to diminished educational outcomes. The review concludes by emphasizing the need for further research to clarify the pedagogical benefits and limitations of different instructional modalities in academic lectures for L2 collocation acquisition.
