Abstract:
<p>Research has shown that children who have English as a first language acquire grammatical morphemes in a predictable order. Many researchers claim that second language learners also follow a predictable pattern when learning English grammatical morphemes regardless of their linguistic background, and that the same mechanisms are responsible for both first and second language acquisition.</p><p>The aim of this paper was to study Swedish students’ knowledge of English grammatical morphemes, and to compare their knowledge with that of second language learners from other countries as well as wi

Abstract:
This quasi-experimental study implemented an original instructional unit in second language (L2) classrooms where the learners were taught (a) how to interact with each other (peer interaction), and (b) how to provide corrective feedback (CF) to each other (peer CF). This Second Language Acquisition (SLA) intervention was examined from three different viewpoints. First, from a psycholinguistic perspective, the effect of the intervention on learners' interactional patterns as well as its effects on their L2 development (i.e., grammatical knowledge and fluent spontaneous production) were investi

Abstract:
<p> Research on age and second language acquisition (L2A) is vast, but inconclusive. Such research has mainly been motivated by the Critical Period Hypothesis (CPH), which postulates that language acquisition becomes extremely difficult after the onset of puberty. Also, there is a lack of research on age and third/additional language (L3/Ln) learning. To fill this gap, this dissertation examines differences in morphosyntactic knowledge between early and late learners of English as a L3/Ln. In this study, `early' and `late' learners are those participants first exposed to English as a medium of

Quantitative analyses of writing tasks, vocabulary tests and questionnaires were used to describe and explain the multi-faceted nature of EFL writing in terms of the likely influencing factors.

Abstract:
Bilingual language production is an area of psycholinguistic research that has received recent attention. Experimental evidence from bilingual word production tasks has shown that both languages share representation at the mental lexicon, meaning that concepts will lead to the activation of the target lemma from both languages. Investigations into how bilinguals organise two grammatical systems has largely come from cross-linguistic syntactic priming. Syntactic priming is a phenomenon in which speakers are likely to repeat a syntactic structure in which they have recently experienced: cross-li

Abstract:
This study aims to improve grammar pedagogy in pre-service teaching institutions. While acknowledging grammar and grammar teaching are contentious issues, the National Curriculum, subsequent state curriculums and national testing, have refocused attention on whether teachers have the requisite subject knowledge to teach grammar to students effectively. Therefore, this mixed methods study contrasts pre-service and in-service teacher beliefs and experiences on grammar and grammar teaching, and knowledge of terminology and concepts, to inform pre-service pedagogical practice.

abstract: Purpose: The present study examined grammatical gender use in child Spanish heritage speakers (HSs) in order to determine whether the differences observed in their grammar, when compared to Spanish monolinguals, stem from an incompletely acquired grammar, in which development stops, or from a restructuring process, in which features from the dominant and the weaker language converge to form a new grammatical system. In addition, this study evaluated whether the differences usually found in comprehension are also present in production. Finally, this study evaluates if HSs differences

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between lexical and grammatical knowledge in the L2 acquisition of English by Korean EFL learners by examining how the depth of lexical knowledge that Korean learners have about English verbs is related to their grammatical knowledge. For this study, L2 research into depth of lexical knowledge and generative syntactic theory have been reviewed to suggest the interdependent nature of vocabulary and grammar in L2 acquisition (Nation, 1990, 2001; Chomsky, 1981, 1986, 1995; Herschensohn, 2000).

Abstract:
A sophisticated system of finger-counting was developed in Greco-Roman antiquity and was used until the middle ages. It enabled people to count to high amounts on their fingers. In the early middle ages, this system gave emergence to a pictorial tradition that lasted centuries: throughout the middle ages, large numbers of illuminated manuscripts with depictions of number-gestures circulated across Europe. There is no doubt that finger-counting illuminated manuscripts carried a heavy cultural and intellectual weight in the middle ages. This is evident from the peculiar form of their images, the
