Interlanguage, Simplified English and Two-Word Structures

چکیده
English is widely used as a Second Language. Papua New Guinea (PNG) in the 1990s (during my residence) had population of approximately 4 million people who slightly more than 800 languages. Many PNG people, through exogamy, have both mother and father language; they use Tok Pisin (a major dialect Neo-Melanesian Creole English) for everyday communication outside their neighbourhood group; officially schooling. They are expert multilinguals. India vast, multilingual country with 427 languages, education, it geographically remote from PNG. Both peoples were found to simplify similar ways, an aid learning language, specifically by these means: - rule-generalization (disregarding exceptions)- giving regular semantic basis prepositions (in, into, for, on, etc.),which regularity reference location, direction time, but are, overall, highly irregular Standard (SE)- reducing system article determiners (the, a, zero) zero option- exploiting two-word verb+preposition verb+noun combinations like play up, down, do banking, repairs, make_progress.This congruence implies systematic processes universal basis, suggesting that other learners could profit this approach, further implication type true interlanguage.

Irregular past tense formation in English interlanguage
In 1983, when I attended my first linguistics course, taught by one Professor Rüdiger Zimmermann, Joan Bybee and Carol Moder published an article on „Morphological classes as natural categories“ in Language. In this article they argued that prototype theory can be applied to morphological classes, in particular ablaut classes in English verb morphology. Their experimental results indicated that...
متن کاملTransferability and Productivity of L1 Rules in Catalan-english Interlanguage
This paper examines the interference of L1 neutralization rules in the acquisition of a marked L2 phonological feature. More specifically, it presents results from a study of the acquisition of the voicing contrast in English word-final obstruents by native speakers of Catalan. The voicing contrast in final position in Catalan is neutralized by voicing or devoicing rules, depending on the envir...
متن کاملMorphological Development in the Interlanguage of English Learners of Xhosa
This study investigates the development of morphology in the interlanguage of English learners of Xhosa. A quasi-longitudinal research design is used to trace development in the oral interlanguage of six learners of Xhosa for a period of eight months. The elicitation tasks employed range from fairly unstructured conversation tasks to highly structured sentence-manipulation tasks. The learners h...
متن کاملThe interlanguage speech intelligibility benefit for native speakers of Mandarin: Production and perception of English word-final voicing contrasts
This study investigated the intelligibility of native and Mandarin-accented English speech for native English and native Mandarin listeners. The word-final voicing contrast was considered (as in minimal pairs such as `cub' and `cup') in a forced-choice word identification task. For these particular talkers and listeners, there was evidence of an interlanguage speech intelligibility benefit for ...
متن کاملSimplified structures for two-dimensional adaptive notch filters
In this paper, three new methods for two-dimensional (2-D) adaptive notch filter (ANF) are proposed. They not only contain similar and simpler structures but also can be derived by simpler adaptive algorithms compared with the previous ones. They are helpful for 2-D signal processing. Simulation results show that they can eliminate 2-D sinusoidal signals successfully.
