interlingual, intralingual, developmental
interlingual
errors that arise from the influences of the learner’s L1 onto L2
(when learners apply rules/structures from L1 to L2 + cause mistakes
intralingual
errors occur within the target language due to overgeneralization in L2 learning process
(not influenced by L1)
developmental
errors that reflect child’s mistakes while learning L1
(stems from internal language learning process)
interlanguage (theory)
selinker (1972)
the space between L1 and L2
interlanguage process
vocab -> grammar -> creating “new language”
fossilization
