A comparative analysis of the effect of using translation, definition, etymology, and imageable expressions on the
retention of idioms
The present study aimed to examine the effect of four prevailing teaching methods, i.e., translation, definition,
etymology, and imageable expressions on the immediate and delayed retention of idioms in the receptive and productive modes. To
meet this end, 120 EFL Iranian learners participated in the study. Thirty of them received idioms through definition, thirty
through translation, thirty through pictures, and thirty through etymology in their first language. Twenty idioms were selected
and taught in two sessions. Retention of the idioms, in the productive and receptive modes was measured immediately after the
class and again two weeks later. The results indicated that etymology and pictorial methods had a remarkably more positive
influence on the immediate and delayed retention of the idioms in both the receptive and productive modes.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
