“A crisp slice of Japanese apple or a brittle Swedish cookie”: Some culinary, sensory and semantic-based learning activities in the SFL classroom

Abstract [en]

In this brief educational report, I discuss how one can use methods from two different fields, namely sensory science and lexical semantics (frame semantics) to enhance the students’ vocabulary when learning Swedish as a foreign language (SFL). After an outline of sensory analysis and frame semantics, several examples of sensory semantic frames are shown in order to illuminate how the sensory lexical patterns could expand by using frames, especially when it comes to semantic domains and specification. It is also shown how one could arrange the sensory and semantic classroom activities in order to optimize the learning process and outcome. Since semantic frames mirror the extralinguistic world, they are most useful in contextualization of the lexical items. To be more concrete, the combination of sensory analysis and semantic frames can learn the students not only about the Swedish culinary lexicon, but also about Swedish culture in general, with a culinary departing point which can easily expand to socio-cultural and historical perspectives.
