Opis

Existing literature indicated several influences of L1 Arabic on L2 English: Overuse of and Run-on sentences Omission or misuse of articles, prepositions, and relative clauses Omission or confusion of vowels Preference for root word groups Omission of punctuation Overuse of exaggeration Based on analysis of the writing samples, this study focused most on errors in punctuation, conjunctions, capitalization, and articles. Other aspects of English writing, such as word order, prepositions, and exaggeration did not appear as major examples of cross-linguistic transfer in this study.
