| Course Objectives: | This course aims at familiarizing students with some fundamental lexico-grammatical and pronunciation differences between English and Turkish in order to help them understand the nature of learning difficulties encountered by Turkish learners of English in the English language learning process. The contrasts will focus on specific grammatical subsystems of the two standard languages. Common English language errors among Turkish learners will be used to illustrate the adverse influences of the learners’ mother tongue on their ‘learner English’ output. |
|
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Discuss some of the problems faced by Turkish learners of English 2. Discuss potential ways to address these in the English language classroom 3. Describe similarities and differences between English and Turkish at the syntactic, morphological, semantic, phonological, and pragmatic levels. 4. Use electronic text corpora in contrastive and learner language analysis. |
| The course gives an introduction to contrastive analysis and error analysis focusing on a comparison of English and Turkish and on the analysis of English as produced by Turkish native speakers. Teaching draws on the following text corpora: the Corpus of Contemporary American English and the Turkish component of the International Corpus of Learner English. |
