Syntactic Deviations and Mistakes in Learners' Spoken English Language
Original language description
This paper presents findings on the language produced by English language learners when starting the programme, Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL). About forty students were interviewed at the beginning of the first year of their university studies as a part of the course of language development. These interviews were then transcribed. The analysis of the corpus, consisting of oral and written versions of each interview, is focused mainly on the use of typically spoken structures, learners' frequent grammatical mistakes in relation to the structure of the English sentence, the complexity of their expressions and the potential negative influence of their first language, i.e. Czech. The findings are assessed in the context of second and foreign language acquisition, with emphasis on linguistics, specifically some typical features of spoken language grammar.
