INFLUENCE OF MOTHER TONGUE (KAZAKH LANGUAGE) ON FOREIGN (ENGLISH) LANGUAGE AT A2 LEVEL

Abstract

The article presents brief description of Kazakh and English simple sentences and the potential interference, which may be caused by some structural differences, existing in both languages. As Kazakh language is considered a language belonging to the agglutinative type (synthetic), it is rich in morphemic composition, which leads to the relative mobility of words within the sentence. Thus, due to the specific word order Kazakh simple sentence has some features, differing sharply from the English word order. It is well-known, that in the process of foreign language acquisition one of the problems, learners encounter, is a mother tongue interference. When writing or speaking in the target language (English), foreign language learners tend to rely on their native language (Kazakh) structures to produce sentences. If the structures of the two languages are distinctly different, then one could expect a relatively high frequency of interference errors to occur in the foreign language. In our understanding interference is a result of the conflict of two language systems, when a dominant language system consciously or unconsciously "imposes" its own rules. Taking into consideration main peculiarities of placing the words in Kazakh and English simple sentences, some conclusions can be drawn regarding the instances of potential interference of Kazakh language into English.
