1、The Second Language Acquisition,第二语言习得,Definition,Second language acquisition: It refers to a systematic study of how one person acquires a second language subsequent to his native language.Acquisition习得: 无意识地学会 Learning学习:通过系统学习语法规律等学会,Interlanguage 中介语,定义: 中介语:中介语理论假设第二语言学习者有一个自行创造的独特的语言系统,介乎学习者的母
2、语和目的语之间,并随学习的进展逐渐向目的语靠拢。因为游离于母语和目的语之间,中介语自然包含许多错误。 E.g. I lost my road.I lost my way.特征: Fossilization(石化现象):It refers to the phenomenon that incorrect linguistic features become a permanent part of the way a person speaks or writes a language. 石化现象是中介语的重要特征 E.g. All students are not here.不是所有的学生都在这
3、里None of the student is here.所有的学生都不在这里,对第二语习得的研究方法,1、Contrastive Analysis(对比分析):对两种语言系统(尤其是指对母语和第二语言)进行对比和比较,以期能发现二者的异同之处。Language transfer(语言迁移) Positive Transfer(正迁移):母语与目的语相似,有利于目的语学习。 Negative Transfer(负迁移):母语与目的语的差异,妨碍对目的语的掌握。(如中文名词无单复数形式)2 、Error Analysis(错误分析):先对二语学习者进行中介与区分和描述,通过对比中介语与目的语的不
4、同找出差异的错误,然后对其进行分析。2.1. Interlingual errors(语际错误):受母语影响所引起的错误(语法,读音,语序,词汇等)e.g. three lie/lay,意义区别,Mistakes & Errors Mistake失误:有意或无意造成的(如粗心),可自我更正 Error错误:无意造成的(如能力不足),不可自我纠错Nurture & Nature Nurture 后天学习:通过不断模仿和巩固学到的 Nature 先天习得:人类天生具有语言学习机制,通过足量知识输入可逐渐获得语言知识Input hypothesis(输入假说):通过向学习者提供比目前水平稍高一点的知
5、识输入,可以激活学习者的语言习得机制,而促进他们语言学习的进步。,Individual Differences个体差异,1.language aptitude(语言学习潜能)2.motivation2.1. instrumental motivation(工具型动机):如为了考试或奖学金等2.2. integrative motivation(综合型动机):如对希望参加英语社团等2.3. resultative motivation (结果型动机):为了外在目的2.4.intrinsic motivation (内在动机):为了满足自我对外语学习的兴趣3.strategy3.1. learni
