In this ‘ ’ ( ) study, 106 Catalan/Spanish young adults proficient in English watched a short advert with the audio in English and subtitles in Polish, a language they were not familiar with. Results indicated that learning took place, as their scores were significantly higher than those of a control group who had not seen the video. The most recurrent learning strategies these used were associations with imagery and with vocabulary in previously learned languages, along with attention to specific input factors such as frequency of word occurrence. Findings reveal how audiovisual input can help vocabulary acquisition at , as well as factors relevant for learning from video viewing at these very first stages.
