ANALYSIS OF ERRORS IN KURDISH AND PERSIAN
Journal Title: Asian Journal of Management Sciences and Education - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
This study suggests that some of the EFL learner’s errors apparently are due to insufficient knowledge about L2 structure and background knowledge. The research aimed at investigating the learners’ errors made by two groups under the investigation. The sample of the study composed of 30 Kurdish speaking and 30 Persian speaking groups majoring in English translation. They read Persian sentences and converted it into English. The result of the Chi-square test indicates that there is no statistical significantly difference between two groups under the investigation, but the only similarity between these groups is that they made omission error more than the other errors. The result of this study shows that interference from the learners’ mother tongue was the main cause of errors.
