The aim of this study was to provide analysis on the grammatical errors occurred to the Seventh grade students of SMPN 01 Embaloh Hulu and their interlanguage causes in the students’ writing. This research was conducted through the procedure of error analysis. Surface strategy taxonomy, as one of the error types of error analysis was used for further analysis in order to describe the students’ errors. The subjects of this research were the seventh grade students of SMPN 01 Embaloh Hulu in the academic year of 2020/2021. The collected samples were taken by sorting out the samples from the students’ writing tasks. The samples were analyzed by the criteria of errors called Omission, Addition, Misordering, and Misformation. The result showed that the students produced 92% of non-English-like sentences in their writing. The most frequent error type made by the students was omission type. The result revealed 48% errors appearing on the students’ writing. The indicated result discovered that the students’ interlanguage process covered both the central process of interlanguage called overgeneralization of TL rules and strategy in language learning.Keywords: Interlanguage, Interlanguage Process, Surface Strategy Taxonomy

Full textAbstract:
Error analysis and interlanguage are two cores in second language acquisition research. Researchers have conducted studies and established corpora from various perspectives based on Big Data. However, most of the existing interlanguage corpora provide no feedback for students, which resulted in the barrier of improving self-study efficiency. Additionally, interlanguage systems are influenced by nationalities, while there is a vacancy on the construction of divisional interlanguage corpora. Based on previous studies and error analysis of BNU-Cardiff Chinese College students, this study proposes an idea and model of “Parallel Contrast Corpus of Grammatical Errors” for native English speakers in Chinese learning.

This study deals with the comparative analysis of interlanguage errors made by Junior High School and Senior High School. The objective of this research is to identify the types of interlanguage errors made by the Junior High School and Senior High School. The similarities and the differences of interlanguage error made by Junior High School and Senior High School, and the extend do the native language and the target language influence the student interlanguage system. The data are students’ errors in writing. The erroneous sentences are taken from 40 pieces of the junior high school students’ writing, and 40 pieces of the senior high school students’ writing. The data analyzed qualitatively, especially in using Error analysis Framework. The results indicate that the interlanguage errors made by Junior High School and Senior High School have the similarities and differences. The similarities of interlanguage errors that found by researcher are: wrong spelling of word, the use of Indonesian word, and omission of bond morpheme‘s/es’ as the plural marker. The researcher found ‘the wrong spelling of word, the use of Indonesian word, and omission of bond morpheme ‘s/es as the plural marker” in Junior High School, in Senior High School composition. The differences of interlanguage error made by Junior High School and Senior High School as follow: the use of V-ing for past event in Junior High school, it is not found in Senior high school composition. The errors that found in Senior High School, such as: False friend, Additional apostrophe (’s) is not appropriate, Additional‘s’ as Singular Marker, Omission of preposition, The use of singular noun for plural noun, The use of subjective pronouns for objective pronouns, and Omission of Article (a,an,the) , these errors are not found in Junior High School composition. There are two influences in students’ English namely influenced by first language and influenced by target language; the most dominant influence in students’ interlanguage in Junior high school and Senior high school is influenced by the target language. It can be seen from the percentages of it, 85, 71% in Junior High School and 85, 71% in Senior High School composition.

This study aims to investigate the interlanguage of error analysis production on students writing. In writing process, there are general problem that occur such error from the interlanguage. This problem certainly getting worse during this Covid -19 pandemic era where the students only have limited direct or face to face English learning for one hour per week. Interlanguage is language used by second or foreign language when prosess of learning the target language. Data collected through documentation technique. The sample was taken using purposive sampling technique. There were five students as the sample. The framework of interlanguage and error analysis was applied in the process of data analysis. The results of this study indicate that the interlanguage of the students is influenced by 78% of language transfer, 10.5%of transfer of training and 10.5%of overgeneralization.

Full textAbstract:
This study aims at investigating the interlanguage production by Indonesian EFL students in their English compositions. Interlanguage describes the language produced by second or foreign language learners when learning the target language. Forty college students majoring in English for tourism industry were the subjects in this study. In collecting the data, the students were asked to write a recount text with a topic "an experience of visiting a hotel” through a guided writing exercise. The framework of error analysis and interlanguage analysis were used in analyzing the data. The result shows that the students’ interlanguage production is influenced by both Indonesian language as their native language (NL) and English as the target language (TL). The influences were found in both lexical and grammatical forms. This study implies that in learning a foreign language, errors are made by students and by knowing the errors, teachers and tutors can apply appropriate strategies and materials to enhance learning.

Full textAbstract:
This research focuses on exploring learners’ language, especially the errors that are performed by the English learners. The subjects of this study are two adolescent students who have been learning English since early age. The data analyzed is collected by doing the interview session. Identification and classification are done toward the errors performed by the subjects. After that, the pattern is drawn to find out the subjects’ nature of language. The result shows that both interlanguage and intralanguage affect the students’ English. However, interlanguage affects the errors more than does intralanguage. It proves that the nature of L1 affects the L2 acquisition. The errors occurred in terms of subject-verb agreement, tenses, and relative clause. At the end, the appropriate feedback given to speaking performance is implicit correction such as recast and prompts.Keywords: Error analysis, feedback, intralanguage, interlanguage

Full textAbstract:
English compositions written by Indonesian EFL students contain erroneous sentences which portray learner language. The errors are neither of their native language nor the target language, but containing linguistic system from both. This is called an interlanguage. This study focuses on one of interlanguage features, that is, permeability, meaning the susceptibility of interlanguages to infiltration by first language and target language rules or forms. It aims to provide empirical evidence of the permeability of the students’ interlanguage production by describing the types and degree of the native and target language influence and explaining the possible causes of the influences. The data were 264 ill-formed sentences elicited from their English free compositions. Error analysis and interlanguage analysis were used as framework for collecting, identifying, describing, and explaining the data. The results indicate that their interlanguage production was influenced by their native language and the target language at both lexical and syntactical level. The dominant native language influence was on vocabulary (i.e. Indonesian borrowings) and the target language influence was on grammar (i.e. verb tenses). The native language influence had a little lower frequency compared with that of the target language. The main source of the influence was their possession of two language systems in their mind was activated regardless of their intention to use one language only. The native language influence was due to the good mastery of the native language and the limited knowledge of the target language. The target language influence was due to the learning strategy used.

In the learning of Spanish as a foreign language, it is common to see Chinese students making errors that are mostly influenced by their mother tongue (Chinese) or by the language they have mastered, and even the errors made by the learners change at different stages of the learning process. This is because learners produce an independent language system -interlanguage - in the process of foreign language learning. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the common errors in interlanguage made by Chinese students when learning Spanish, based on the concept and characteristics of intermediary language and the use of the Spanish verb ir.

Full textAbstract:
The major aim of the current paper is to review and discuss three prevailing approaches to the study of Second Language Acquisition (SLA) since the middle of the twentieth century: Contrastive Analysis (CA, henceforth), Error Analysis (EA) and Interlanguage (IL). It begins with a general overview of how the CA approach was formulated and developed and discusses the three versions of CA which were displaced later by other approaches, such as EA and IL. The paper also provides an in-depth theoretical discussion of the notion of EA in terms of its definitions, goals, significance, development, causes and procedures. The discussion about the SLA approaches concludes with a review of IL which claims that language learners produce a separate linguistic system with its own salient features, which differs from their L1 and target language. Additionally, a bulk of previous studies conducted on EA in different contexts are reviewed throughout the paper.

Full textAbstract:
This article analyzes the errors in de structures produced by learners studying Chinese as a second language based on the Global Chinese Interlanguage Corpus. The research is hoped to open up a new vision for error analysis of de structures with methods of corpus linguistics and provide some empirical evidence that can be used to adjust the teaching of Chinese grammar to make it more problem-oriented. The article begins with a brief review of relevant studies and an explicit definition of the de structure. Data used in the article all come from the Global Chinese Interlanguage Corpus, which has been sifted carefully to make them better adapted to the research objective. Errors in de structures are categorized into five different types based on the ways surface structures are altered. The characteristics of each error type are given by the description and correction of example sentences. Two mechanisms are given as the possible explanation for the roots of errors in de structures: L1 transfer and overgeneralization. The contrastive analysis between Korean, English and Chinese explains the occurrence of serval types of errors, and some erroneous sentences created by CSL learners also confirm the existence of overgeneralization.

Full textAbstract:
This study investigates the types of interlanguage of adjective phrase construction that students made when writing English descriptive text. The errors function as a system and can be used to determine interlanguage. The researcher employed a cross-sectional design and used descriptive qualitative methods. The descriptive texts of the students were collected as primary data at the same time but different levels of proficiency. Thirty tenth-grade students from Matauli Senior High School in Central Tapanuli, North Sumatera, participated in the study. Error Analysis (EA) and Interlanguage theories were central to the data analysis (IL). The findings revealed that students' English production is still interlanguage because their writings contain a wide range of errors regarding adjective phrases. There are 113 errors in total. There are up to 70 items of omission errors (62%), 19 items of misformation errors (17%), 15 items of misordering errors (13%), and 9 items of addition errors (8%). Furthermore, four processes were identified as contributing to students' interlanguage in this study, with the student's native language having the greatest influence on their English production (Language transfer (71%), second language learning strategies (14%), false concepts hypothesized (9.7%), and overgeneralization (5.3%)). The findings also revealed that both interlingual and intralingual sources have caused errors in second language learning. It can be concluded that students' competence at each level is insufficient. Due to their system, they are on the interlanguage continuum, which has a structurally intermediate status between the native and target languages.

ABSTRAK: This study analyzes such interlanguage errors in five private English students with low school grades. That is why some of these students' interlingual errors are easy to spot. The use of English must take place during a private course in English. This can happen from teacher to student or from student to teacher, or it can occur when certain written activities are completed by students. This study found evidence that English was still used at the Interlanguage (IL) level because although they used English, some students still had interlingual errors, such as the use of To Be, prepositions and adjectives / nouns, etc. This study also finds a technique by which teachers solve the interlingual error problem by using Drill method, which allows them to repeat the use of To Be, adjectives, etc.

Error analysis is a very different process for humans who are not only sapiens and Loquens but also homo errands. The study analyses the errors in the post of female celebrities on Instagram. This study aimed to identify syntactical errors and identify the causes of these syntactical errors committed by Pakistani female celebrities in their Instagram posts. The methods and model used in this research are mixed methods and Coder’s model (1970). The mixed method includes both qualitative and quantitative methods. Data was collected in the form of Instagram posts. The technique of sampling used in this research is purposive random sampling. Ten posts were selected through purposive random sampling. The results of this study reveal the most common syntactic errors made by Pakistani celebrities. This research depicted that the most regularly detected errors are punctuation errors. Although both interlanguage and intralanguage influences were found to be causing syntactical errors, intralanguage errors were more prevalent compared to interlanguage errors in their writing. The detection of errors in Pakistanis female celebrities' Instagram posts will facilitate them to improve their basic writing skills. This study will be a fruitful gateway for opening the doors for future researchers who want to contribute to the Error analysis’s field.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents part of a statistical analysis (SPSS) of the Polish-Ukrainian interlanguage which is currently being conducted. The presented part of the research pertains to the most difficult forms from the morphological level of the Polish language for speakers of Ukrainian who learn Polish as a foreign language, regardless of their declared level of language proficiency (A1+ ‒ B2+). The analyses presented in the article are of a qualitative nature. The questionnaire for the research into the interlanguage contained both correct and wrong forms (i.e. interferential forms extracted from the previous author’s corpus-based error analyses) – the respondent had to decide which form was correct. Therefore, the study concerns language intuition. The results of the research are convergent with the analyses of actual errors made by Ukrainians in their written assignments, which constitutes a motivation for further statistical analyses of the interlanguage with the use of the same research tool.

Full textAbstract:
Sometimes the students of ESP or Non-English majoring error in using tenses. The low level of students' understanding of tense is one of the factors that greatly influences errors in making sentences. The objective of this research was to describe the students’ errors and its causes in using tenses. In this research, the writers used a qualitative method in a form of descriptive analysis (percentage) that included observation, collecting the students’ test, analyzing, and interpreting the data. For collecting the data, the researcher used test as the instrument. This research was conducted to 35 ESP students of Pharmaceutical Study Program of Institute of Health Science of Siti Khadijah Palembang. The result of the research showed that the percentage of the error made by 35 students as the samples in using tenses was 75%, consisted of the error of selection was 30%, the error of omission was 24% and error of ordering 21%. It means that the students of Pharmaceutical Study Program of Institute of Health Science of Siti Khadijah Palembang made error in using tense, because more than 70% of the students made error. The probable sources of the students’ error were interlanguage error and context in learning error, where 52% errors were caused by interlanguage.

Full textAbstract:
Analyzing the errors of students’ learner language (interlanguage) can help language instructors to not only betterunderstand why the errors may be occurring, but also provide them with insight on how to better guide learners intheir L2 learning. In this paper, the learner language of two Turkish students of English was analyzed regarding thethird person singular –s inflection and interaction strategies. The author met with each student three times and speechdata was collected during these meetings. An error and interlanguage analysis was then conducted. Reflecting onthese types of analyses can be a very enlightening process in a teacher’s continuing education. Various implicationsarise, such as more objectivity in approaching student errors, creating better learning opportunities in the classroom,as well as having a better indication of where students are at in their own second language acquisition process.

Abstract This study is aimed at providing explanation on the taxonomy of the grammatical errors made by the university students in written production of English. The data were obtained from twenty English texts written by students as a part of their task in writing class. The findings of the study reveal that the errors can be grouped into fifteen categories ranging from severe errors to mild errors. The categories for severe errors are word choice, verb group, article, preposition, plurality and spelling. The other categories are subject-verb agreement, pronoun agreementa nd dropping, relative clause, possessive, copula omission and mechanic. Based on these findings, the teacher of English are suggested to raise students’ awareness on these errors and provide sufficient remedies to prevent students from internalising such errors.

Full textAbstract:
The present study delved into the impact of students' L1 (Arabic) morphosyntactic system on their L2 writing skills; the influence of Arabic socio-cultural and educational context (where students learn L2) on students’ writing; students’ attitude towards L2 writing and EFL teachers’ perceptions and interpretations of students' writing difficulties. The study was conducted in 8 public higher education institutions in Oman. The participants of the study were 598 Omani EFL students who studied at The General Foundation Program and 54 EFL teachers. The study was underpinned by two theories: transfer of learning theory (Thorndike & Woodworth, 1901) and interlanguage theory (Selinker, 1972). The conceptual framework was arrived at by employing two models, contrastive analysis (CA) and error analysis (EA). A mixed-methods approach was used to collect quantitative and qualitative data employing a questionnaire, semi-structured interview, and a writing test (essay writing). The findings revealed that students’ intralingual (L2 rules) errors were larger than their interlingual (L1 interference) errors. It was also found that students had a positive attitude towards L2 learning. Further, the teachers’ interviews confirmed that teachers were cognizant of students’ writing errors but they could not identify and determine the sources of those errors.

This study was conducted in the SMAN 3 Rangkasbitung, the 1st semester of the school year 2014-2015. The population of the research was 30 students from one class of the tenth grade of SMAN 3 Rangkasbitung and the sample was taken 30 students. The writer uses a descriptive qualitative approach and error analysis based on the aspect. As the result, the researcher found that the students made 78 errors in their descriptive writings. The errors occurred in all types of errors investigated from Azar’s give the types of errors in grammatical aspects to classified based on linguistic category taxonomies aspect. There are verb tense, omit a word, spelling, add a word, capitalization, word choice, word order, singular – plural, word form, article. The sources of error was also mostly due to interlanguage transfer. Therefore, the teachers should be more focus on teaching of verb tense then must give remedial teaching after identifying students’ error in writing also the teachers can teach students to more practices on writing.</p>

This study aims to identify the interlanguage used by overseas Koreans who re-entered Korea for the purpose of studying Korean and entering domestic college through the methodology of error analysis. In particular, this study intends to systematically analyze the Korean language errors of overseas Koreans according to proficiency variables (beginner, intermediate, and advanced) and discourse medium variables (written and spoken language). To this end, this study made a well-balanced corpus of overseas Korean learners with 13,238 words. The results of this study are as follows: First, as a result of the distribution of relative error frequency, the frequency of errors increases as the proficiency increases, and the frequency of errors in written discourse are about five times higher than in spoken discours. Second, as a result of analyzing the frequency of errors by error location, the errors of general nouns shows the highest frequency even in advanced levels without decreasing. Also, the subjective marker was not a top 5 error in the written discourse, although it was a top 2 error in the spoken discourse. Third, as a result of analyzing the frequency of errors by error type, replacement errors were the most common, which was followed by misform, Addition, and Omission errors. At the intermediate level, the replacement error decreased, while the misform error increased. While the misform errors are rather reduced in spoken discourse, addition and omission errors appear more frequently than in written discourse.

Full textAbstract:
This study aims to detect and analyze the errors made by Chinese vocational college students with the help of a computer scoring system. Under the theoretical framework of interlanguage theory and error analysis theory, errors are classified into three categories and five sub-categories, namely: 1. substance errors: orthography; 2. text errors: morphology and syntax; 3. discourse errors: coherence and pragmatics. 90 compositions with a total number of 11,761 words were screened and detected by computational and manual means. A total of 1652 errors were found and given detailed analysis and explanation. The study concludes that the most common errors occurred in orthography, such as spelling, capitalization, and punctuation, and syntax, such as sentence fragment/ sentence redundancy. Analyzing the causes of the errors provides implications for English teachers and researchers of the computer scoring system.

Making errors is a natural process of learning. Writing as a productive skill is important for students to express their ideas. However, students conducted errors in the productive skills. Therefore, this study is intended to find out types of errors made by students in written English. This study employed the qualitative method where the Error Analysis was implemented. The subject of this study is students in first grade of SMAN 1 Abdya and the object of this study were the errors found in written English. The population of this research was all of students in first grade which consists of 208 students from all study programs where 25 % of the populations were taken as the sample. To collect the data, written tests were conducted. The written test shows the percentage of writing errors, including omission errors, which is 58.38%, misformation errors with a total of 16.48%, misordering error 13.89%, and addition of 11.26%. The errors were found when students omitted 'to be' as main verb. Second, students tend to add 'to' after modal auxiliaries such as 'can' or 'will'. Third, misformation errors happened when students could not form the verb correctly. Last, the misordering errors were produced when students put words randomly. Consequently, it was discovered that the errors made by students were impacted by their native language, and this is the interlanguage move.

The research aims to examine and analyze student nurses’ written works in term of syntax and morphology category. Twenty-six students of the third semester took an English presentation course, which focused on medical cases. The results have revealed that 186 error identifications were found consisting of 132 syntactical errors and 54 morphological errors. The students make errors in the types of article, preposition, parallel structure, the use of be, passive voice, word order, tenses, infinitive to, modal auxiliary and subject determiner in syntactical category. While in morphological error, they make errors in the plural form, subject verb agreement, comparative adjective and word form. Word order is as the most common language error in syntax category with 36 total errors or 19.35% out of 186. The second one is preposition with 26 total errors or 13.97%. While in morphology category, subject verb agreement is the most common one with 29 total errors or 15.59%. The second common one is word form with 13 total errors or 6.98%. It can be concluded that there are 132 (70.96%) of error identification in syntactical category and 54 error identifications or 29.04% in morphological category. In addition to its error identification in syntactical and morphological features, the research has found that the causes of students’ errors are due to intralanguage and interlanguage errors as it has some slightly differences between Bahasa Indonesia and English in term of grammatical structure.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines the grammatical errors and vocabulary types in the writings of Thai high school EFL students. Employing Dulay et al.’s (1982) surface strategy taxonomy, errors were categorized into omission, misformation, addition, and misordering to identify predominant error patterns. Additionally, the study assessed the vocabulary range via the General Service List and the Academic Word List. Findings indicated a significant reliance on high-frequency words and less frequent use of AWL vocabulary, stressing gaps in readiness for academic study. The study highlights the diagnostic value of error analysis in revealing insights into learners’ interlanguage development, reflecting their evolving understanding and hypothesis testing about the target language influenced by their first language. Grammatical errors, such as incorrect use of singular and plural forms, articles, and tense inconsistencies, were common, suggesting learners face structural and syntactic challenges. Omission errors emerged as the most prevalent, followed by misformation, addition, and misordering, indicating areas needing focused grammatical instruction. Vocabulary analysis revealed an 82.30% overlap of the first 1,000 GSL words in students’ texts, contrasting with the minimal use of AWL words, essential for academic success. The findings advocate for enhanced instructional strategies integrating GSL and AWL vocabularies and emphasizing systematic grammatical error correction to improve language proficiency and academic readiness. Future research should include more diverse learner populations and a broader range of error types to provide insights into language acquisition challenges and solutions. This study contributes to refining teaching methodologies and curriculum development to better prepare students for future academic challenges.

Full textAbstract:
This article presents a panoramic review of Error Analysis and Interlanguage studies, with the aim of reflecting on the need to include a new taxonomic category in said research. If formal second language teaching is an important factor in learning, there is no doubt that research on students' interlanguage should reflect this importance. This can be formulated through an operational category in formal learning contexts that allows the student's data to be classified, depending on whether the element of analysis has been previously instructed or not. This category gives great importance to the entire production and opens new paths in the dialogue with the influence of non-formal learning and with the positive impact of related languages, regardless of whether it is the mother tongue. It also highlights the importance of observing, quantifying and describing linguistic phenomena that are not necessarily produced in large absolute numbers, but that might still be relevant to explain the evolution of second language acquisition.

Full textAbstract:
Many studies on gender assignment in French have focused on the effect of the final morpheme of the noun on the identification of the gender of the noun and the subsequent agreement with any determiners. The present study considers the effect of a noun’s initial vowel on gender accuracy in conversations with 36 Dutch-speaking French foreign language learners. The analysis of 1540 indefinite article + noun sequences revealed that gender accuracy was significantly lower when the noun started with a vowel. This effect was significant for French L3 learners but weaker among more advanced French L2 learners. It thus seems that an initial vowel, and the resulting gender syncretism, delays the correct identification of a noun’s gender among French L2 learners.

This study investigated the erroneous use of the high-frequency verb TAKE by the Chinese college learners of English as a foreign language (EFL), aiming to identify the similarities and differences between Chinese EFL learners, aimed at finding out more effective ways for the teaching and researching of the high-frequency verbs. Corpus-based Contrastive Interlanguage Analysis and Error Analysis were carried out in the present study, with the subcorpora ST4 and ST6 of CLEC (Chinese Learner English Corpus) as the learner corpora.
The analyses involved the misuse of the verb TAKE by the Chinese EFL learners. The error analysis of TAKE was based on the classification in the corpus CLEC. From the perspective of the overall frequency, the ST6 learners commit fewer errors than the ST4 learners. From the perspective of error types, the ST6 learners and the ST4 learners have much in common. That is, the error types of “wd” and “cc” take up an overwhelming part of all the errors in both corpora. These errors are caused by some interlingual and intralingual factors such as language transfer, overgeneralization, and communication strategy. In comparison, in the process of EFL learning, the non-English majors are interfered by their mother tongue to a larger extend than the English majors.

To analyze bilingual acquisition, links are made between contributions of studies on bilingualism and those of error analysis and interlanguage studies, which consider language acquisition as the development of a transitional competence. This evolution is apparent in the development of particular linguistic structures, such as present indicative morphology in written French. It can be seen that discourse of 30 Mexican university students who completed 140 hours of learning contains both inter- and intralingual features, but the proportions of these in our sample suggest that the student’s interlanguage is no longer characteristic of subtractive and compound bilingualism, both relying on the mother tongue, but rather of incipient coordinate bilingualism

This study employs error analysis as a pivotal lens to scrutinize the intricacies of second language learning, emphasizing the unique accents manifested through learners’ mistakes. Departing from the confines of contrastive analysis, the research aims to illuminate the processes of acquiring a second language. Key facets of language acquisition, including transfer, interference, and the fossilization process, are investigated to provide insights into the development of learners’ interlanguage. The study conducts a comparative analysis of early and late language learning, emphasizing the impact of cognitive, psychological, and social factors on the learning trajectory. Motivational influences, encompassing instrumental and integrative motives, are explored in connection to their effects on learning outcomes. This research not only contributes to a deeper understanding of error patterns in second language acquisition but also advocates for methodologies that surpass the constraints of contrastive analysis, offering potential avenues for more effective language learning strategies.

Тhe error-tagged learner corpus is a significant and specialized type of learner corpora that can methodically identify learners’ errors and generate various reports and analyses to investigate the challenges and difficulties in language learning. This corpus is developed by collecting learners’ written or spoken productions and annotating the errors using an error-tag system. The reports and analyses of the corpus can be cate- gorized based on variables such as first-language background, proficiency levels, age, gender, and more. The error-tagged learner corpus can be used for theoretical and practical research analysis in linguistics, second language acquisition (SLA), and foreign language teaching (FLT). At the theoretical level, corpus reports can be used to study interlanguage and learning development. At the practical level, such analysis can help to develop need-based and specific learning materials and to select effective learning strategies and teaching methods. This paper aims to introduce and explain the process of developing an error-tagged learner corpus, structured in two sections. The first part of the paper outlines the basic principles and methodology for designing and constructing an error- tagged learner corpus. Specifically, it introduces the structural frame- work by listing design criteria and tools for constructing such a corpus. The second part presents a detailed case study of the Persian error-tagged learner corpus developed by collecting authentic written texts from Serbian Farsi learners. Based on the corpus analysis, Serbs’ most frequent errors and difficulties in learning Persian were identified, mainly related to word order, orthography, and some specific syntactic structures.

This study aims to identify the syntactical errors in the descriptive text writing of 10 elementary-level students at Al-Ikhlas Boarding School. This study applied a qualitative-descriptive approach. The source of data was taken from the students writing. Those descriptive texts were analyzed by classifying the errors as types of syntactical errors. From this study, the researcher found syntactical errors, namely errors in pronouns, be, plurals, and the use of the verb tense. This finding shows that EFL learners cannot completely master and apply the grammar of English in terms of syntactical function to their writing. It is influenced by factors such as interlingual and intralingual transfer. But the dominant factor in these results is interlanguage transfer. This study is supposed to be a reference for another researcher, linguist, and educator for their further study on error analysis.

Abstract: The errors cannot be separated from the students who learn English as their Foreign Language in writing skills. They always make error, especially in grammar term. It is because of the difference between the Indonesian and English grammatical pattern. The purposes of this study are to find out the grammatical errors based on Dulay, Burt and Krashen’s surface structure taxonomy that happen in students’ writing text in translating text from Indonesian to English especially in using simple present tense and to find the sources of errors. Mix method,qualitative and quantitative, is used as the method in this study. The data is taken from 20 students of the third-semester students in Stekom Semarang. This study found that misformation is the highest errors, 96 errors or 54,8% from the whole errors. Next, 40 errors or 22,8% for addition errors, 29 errors or 16,5% for omission errors and 10 errors or 5,71% for misordering errors from the whole errors. Intralingual factor is the most source of learner errors. There are 75% of errors that caused by intralingual factor and 25% errors are caused by interlanguage factors.

Full textAbstract:
The presented research introduces the concept of interlanguage, a key term in the study of second language (L2) acquisition, with particular reference to the teaching of Italian as an L2 to Eastern Slavic speakers, especially Russian native speakers. The concept of interlanguage represented an important theoretical innovation in applied linguistics and has had significant implications for the development of teaching methodologies in the context of language learning. Interlanguage is defined as a dynamic linguistic system that evolves during the process of acquiring a second language. This system consists of linguistic rules that do not fully belong to either the learner’s native language (L1) or the target language (L2) but instead form an «intermediate language». In other words, interlanguage is a transitional and mutable state that reflects the learner’s incomplete linguistic competence in L2. This intermediate system is characterized by its own rules, which the learner develops through processes of generalization, conscious and unconscious learning, and also through errors. One of the crucial aspects of interlanguage, as discussed in the article, is the phenomenon of «fossilization». This term refers to the process by which some erroneous linguistic structures become stable and permanent in the learner’s linguistic system, despite continued exposure to the L2 and attempts at correction. Fossilization represents one of the main challenges in the process of acquiring a second language, as it hinders progress towards complete and fluent competence in the target language. The study also highlights the variability of interlanguage, meaning the learner’s ability to use different linguistic forms in various contexts. This phenomenon reflects the complexity of the acquisition process, where L2 learning is not linear and can vary significantly depending on factors such as the communicative context, motivation, linguistic input, and the learner’s metalinguistic awareness. Another key theme addressed is the importance of feedback in the learning process. Corrective feedback, which can be explicit or implicit, plays a fundamental role in helping learners recognize and correct their errors, thereby preventing fossilization. However, the quality of the feedback and the way it is provided are crucial: well-calibrated feedback can foster more effective learning, while inadequate or excessive feedback may generate anxiety or confusion, slowing down the acquisition process. The research focuses particularly on the difficulties that Russian-speaking learners encounter when learning Italian. The phonological and grammatical differences between Russian and Italian can lead to frequent errors. For example, the use of articles in Italian, which do not exist in Russian, represents a significant challenge for Russian speakers, as does the conjugation of verbs in Italian tenses, which differ greatly from the Russian verbal system. These errors are not random but arise from the intermediate interlanguage system that learners develop. Understanding these systematic errors and their connection to the learner’s L1 allows teachers to intervene more precisely and effectively. Finally, the research discusses the importance of adopting specific teaching strategies to prevent fossilization and promote L2 learning. Among these, communicative activities that provide rich and diverse input, as well as targeted feedback, play a crucial role in correcting errors without undermining the learner’s motivation. Therefore, teachers must be able to adapt to the learner’s interlanguage system and offer appropriate support, taking into account the specific difficulties related to their L1. Only through a flexible and aware approach can errors be prevented from becoming ingrained in the learner’s linguistic system, allowing for continuous progress towards linguistic competence in L2. In summary, the research emphasizes how recognizing interlanguage and its characteristics, such as fossilization, variability, and the importance of feedback, is fundamental for effective foreign language teaching. Specifically, understanding the phonological and grammatical difficulties faced by Russian-speaking learners of Italian can guide the development of more appropriate and personalized pedagogical strategies, improving teaching effectiveness and fostering greater mastery of L2.

The current study seeks to identify the article errors for both first and third year students in conversations. To achieve this the aim, interview and spot the differences tasks are used as a source for data collection. The study targeted 60 samples in the Department of English, College of Education for Humanities, University of Mosul, for the academic year 2021-2022. Participants are chosen randomly from the students. As for data analysis, errors are described according to Corder's (1973) classification viz omission, addition, misordering, and selection. The current study demonstrated that learners of English as a foreign language face some difficulties in using articles in conversations. Regarding the description of errors, first year students made 65% of the errors related to the omission category, while 31% of the errors were related to addition category. Errors related to selection category occupy only 4% of article errors. As far as third year students, it has been noticed that 60% of article errors related to omission category , it represents the highest percentage among other categories. Errors associated with addition category have the percentage of 38% , while 2% of these errors are represented by choosing inappropriate items. No errors have been noticed for two levels at the level of article ordering. Regarding sources of errors, both interlanguage and intralanguage were seen as sources of article errors.

Full textAbstract:
China’s voice in the international arena is gradually increasing in the present era of economic globalization. In order to further strengthen the multifaceted communication with the world, Chinese students must improve their English learning and application skills. However, due to the distinct difference between Chinese and English, and the lack of an authentic communication environment, English collocation has always been a significant difficulty for Chinese students in the process of learning English. As a result, pragmatic errors frequently occur in their usage. Aimed to address Chinese students’ difficulties in applying collocation, this article takes the Chinese Learner English Corpus (CLEC) as the research object and AntConc as the retrieval tool to collect the noun-noun collocation errors (CC1) in CLEC, then further analyses and interprets the data obtained. It’s discovered that learners’ usage errors in noun-noun collocation are mainly divided into the following three categories: grammar error, Chinese English expression, and overgeneralization. By further interpretation and analysis, it is reckoned that negative transfer of native language, interlanguage fossilization, second-language teaching methods, negligence of collocation structure, and semantic constraints are the main reasons for noun-noun collocation errors. In terms of the above situation, this article proposes corresponding countermeasures for second-language teaching methods and English learning to enrich the current research on English collocations, seeking to provide a reference for the use and teaching of noun-noun collocations.

Indonesian EFL Learners experience erroneous speech in the process of learning the target language. Interlanguage, the errors that contain linguistic features which neither belong to the first language (L1) nor the target language becomes the focus of this study. The study aims to analyze the native and target language influence on the interlanguage produced by the students in their speech production. This study was designed in qualitative research approach. The data was collected through interviewed of 20 eighth grade students in English using a guided interview technique that contains 15 questions. The oral responses produced by the students were recorded, identified, described, and explained. The results show that in the syntactic and lexicon levels, both native and target language influenced the students’ interlanguage production. Native language influence includes 1) the use of Indonesian syntactic pattern; 2) the use of Indonesian acronym; 3) the use of Indonesian words; 4) omission of –s in plural forms; 5) omission of to be; 6) subject deletion; and 7) the use of verbs. Target language influence is observed in overgeneralization of articles, the use of to be, and the overgeneralization of ending –ed in the past tense.

Abstract Error Analysis was developed by early Second Language Acquisition (SLA) researchers as a way to investigate interlanguage and better understand the second-language learning processes. While it is no longer an active branch of research in SLA, it remains a useful tool for those concerned with accuracy in language use. Given the elevated importance of accuracy in English for Research and Publication Purposes (ERPP), this may be one area where Error Analysis may continue to inform research and praxis. The high degree of language precision demanded in ERPP contexts can be a source of frustration for many engaged in scholarly publication, especially those for whom English is an additional language, such as the Japanese scientists studied in this paper. For Japanese scientists and possibly others, an empirical profile of their most frequent error patterns may help them to better deal with accuracy in research writing. With this motivation, this study applies a corpus-assisted error analysis framework to quantify sentence-level grammar errors and identify the most frequent error patterns in the research article manuscripts of Japanese scientists. A corpus of 53 research article manuscripts with 4,495 errors comprises the primary data. Additionally, two raters and a comparison of errors from scientists from six different L1 backgrounds are employed to triangulate the data and investigate the reliability and generalizability of the findings. Findings reveal that the top ten most frequent errors comprise 52.9%, or half of all errors in the corpus, and are dominated by errors with determiners and prepositions.
