Regular verbs, past tense and frequency: tracking down a potential source of NS/NNS competence differences
Earlier research (e. g., Clahsen, 1988; Meisel, 1991) indicates that adult second language (L2) learners have difficulties determining the relationship between obligatory verb-raising and verbal inflection. This observation led Clahsen and others to the conclusion that Universal Grammar is not avail...

description | Earlier research (e. g., Clahsen, 1988; Meisel, 1991) indicates that adult second language (L2) learners have difficulties determining the relationship between obligatory verb-raising and verbal inflection. This observation led Clahsen and others to the conclusion that Universal Grammar is not available to the adult L2 learner. The experiments reported here address a more parsimonious explanation for this observation, namely, that L2 competence includes a deficit that affects only the lexical or morphosyntactic mechanisms involved in verb-raising. Specifically, the studies examine one of two possible loci of this deficit and indicate that this possibility may be ruled out. (Verlag). |
