Full textFor graduate studies, proficiency in a foreign language is considered highly relevant. The proficiency examination is one of the steps in the selective process in most cases, it is the first one and candidates are not allowed to proceed on such process if they fail this examination. In this context, the notion of proficiency seems to be a pre-conceived concept, with an apparently clear definition that does not envisage or expect further elaboration on the subject. However, when we analyze how proficiency is approached in graduate studies, we see that such apparently stable concept is feebly built on the imaginary of those involved in the process, i.e., instead of considering proficiency, we could refer to proficiencies. Thus, this research aims mainly at analyzing the representations of proficiency in the English language, which emerge from the speeches of coordinators, students and candidates to post-graduate studies, as well as how the need for the English language is built in this context. In doing so, we base our research on Discourse Analysis theoretical premises, according to which meanings are built through a socio-historical relation. Those analyses have allowed us to understand that the representation of proficiency is heterogeneously built in the speeches of the interviewed people, i.e., sometimes it appears based on the imaginary of language, sometimes on the myth of the native speaker, or even on matters such as the complexity of master and doctorate studies, as well as the notion of time when accomplishing these studies. By pursuing an investigation on the reasons why English (and not any other language) is the most demanded one on proficiency examinations for a foreign language, we have noticed that the hegemonic position of English is given due to some historical facts, strengthened by globalization, and that it may have contributed to produce the need of this language. Nevertheless, such language need seems to be justified by the fact that students from master and doctorate programs must be prepared to read texts in English, to join international congresses, to attend classes conducted by foreign professors, and to pursue internships in foreign countries

Full textI den här kvantitativa studien har en felanalys gjorts på tidskontrollerade engelskuppsatser skrivna av 39 kinesiska universitetsstudenter med engelska som huvudämne. Studiens syfte var att undersöka vilka typer av grammatiska fel som är vanligast. Den undersöker vilka fel som är frekventa hos studenterna och om de kan hänföras till förstaspråks- eller målspråksinterferens. En felanalys baserad på tidigare forskning utarbetades specifikt för de kategorier som påträffades i felanalysen. Följande grammatiska fel analyserades: artikelfel, fel i substantivets singular- och pluralform, prepositionsfel och verbfel. Resultaten visade att medan kinesiska studenter tenderar att göra misstag som är grundade i både förstaspråks- och målspråksinterferens, så beror de flesta felen på förstaspråksinterferens. De här resultaten styrker tidigare forskning som visar att när målspråket tillhör en annan språkfamilj än förstaspråket, uppstår felen oftare på grund av förstaspråksinterferens (även kallat negativ transfer) än av målspråksinterferens.

"Over the last three decades, the study of codeswitching has attracted many data-oriented and theory-oriented sociolinguists and syntacticians. It provides an avenue to understanding the relationship between social processes and linguistic forms. In this vein, the present study examines Thai/English codeswitching practiced by a group of Thai people in Hawai'i from two perspectives: sociolinguistic as well as syntactic. In this study, different theoretical models are tested against each aspect of codeswitching. ..."--Abstract.
