Investigation of six lexical “richness” indices in a corpus of students of Greek as a Second Language (L2) and correlation with Proficiency Levels

This research is based on an Learner Corpus of 224 180-300 word texts (ISMKs) which are answers to B2 Proficiency Level topics in the context of Modern Greek Language Teaching Center ΄s examinations in greek as a Second Language (L2). Although typically these texts belong to the B2 Proficiency Level, they differ significantly. This deviance associated with the fact that they are produced by students from three proficiency levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced) of Greek as L2. Drawing on the linguistic analysis based on ISMKs, the present work focuses on the students’ vocabulary competence, which will be explored through the quantitative analysis of specific lexical “richness” indices in the texts of the
illiterate students. These are Hapax Legomenon Percentage (HL), R1, Lambda (L), h-point (h), Entropy (H) and Average Tokens length (ATL). The aim is to investigate the correlation of these indices with Three Proficiency Levels to which the participants belonged. The results of the above measurements highlighted the inadequacy and weaknesses of the existing scoring framework. Three of six lexical “richness” indices, the Average Tokens length (ATL), the Lambda (L) and the Percentage of Hapax Legomena (HL), were considered statistically significant, but they were not taken into account in students’ vocabulary scoring.
