The Development of Grammatical Morphemes in the Speech of Young Children Using English As a Second Language in a Classroom Context THE DEVELOPMENTOF GRAMMATICALMORPHEMES IN THE SPEECH OF YOUNGSECOND LANGUAGE LEARNERS WITHIN A CONVERSATIONAL CONTEXT. BY CAROLINE H. BARRATT-PUGH. ti Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. The University of Leeds School of Education October 1990. ABSTRACT This is a longitudinal study of the development of grammatical morphemes in the speech of young children using English as a second language in a classroom context. The theoretical standpoint adopted is that first and second language development in 'natural' contexts is facilitated by the same underlying processes, and that central to this development is the notion of meaningful interaction, through which conversational partners negotiate shared understanding. It is argued that if the interactional features identified as facilitative in first language development are reproduced within the classroom context, the sequence of development identified in this study will reflect the sequence identified in first language learning. The data was collected over a period of six terms and initial analysis reveals similarities between the process of morphemic development in first and classroom second language learning. As a result of these findings, the analysis is then extended to take account of the conversational context in which development occurs. Particular reference is made to repetition and formulaic speech which the learners appear to use as a means of producing verb morphemes within the context of interrogatives and negation. The methodological significance of the identification and interpretation of strategies within an interactional framework is discussed. Analysis reveals that in addition to the general processes identified, which account for a shared sequence of development in first and second language development, there are individual differences. These differences are related to the learners' mother tongue, the classroom context and the use of particular strategies. Each one is explored in relation to the management of conversational interaction and underlying grammatical development. The incomplete acquisition of grammatical morphemes by the end of the study is seen as significant and the study concludes by suggesting that this has important implications for the nature of interaction in a classroom context. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. Diane Shorrocks throughout the period of study for her generous time, patience and advice.

INTRODUCTION. This study is an investigation into the development of English as a second language by young children in a classroom context. The literature review explores the way in which understanding of first language development has influenced the direction of second language research and pedagogy. This enabled the researcher to identify major gaps within current research and devise an appropriate methodology for the exploration of second language development. Research into first and second language development has undergone major shifts in emphasis during the last two decades. Initially, research focussed on the development of syntax, which led to an attempt to write an adequate description of emerging grammar, which could be applied at any stage of development. This research emphasised the universal properties of all languages. The recognition of the importance of the child's underlying communicative intention, led towards an analysis of the development of semantics. In particular, such analysis centred on the relationship between communicative intentions, and general cognitive development. More recently an interactional perspective has emerged from a growing interest in the pragmatics of language development. This interactional perspective emphasised the way in which language is facilitated through the joint negotiation of meaning within conversational contexts. Second language research has built on studies of first language learning and developed a number of theories which account for the different aspects of second language development. In turn these theories have influenced methods of facilitating second language learning in classroom contexts. Current research emphasises the importance of meaningful interaction and way =:.

Some of these languages are accepted nationally while others are accepted as dialects of that particular region. The Indian languages belong to four language families namely Indo-European, Dravidian, Austroasiatic (Austric) and Sino-Tibetan. Majority of India's population are using Indo-European and Dravidian languages. The former are spoken mainly in northern and central regions and the latter in southern India. India has 22 officially recognised languages. But around 33 different languages and 2000 dialects have been identified in India.

The author has employed the ‘dependency paradigm’ in her analysis of the events that unfolded in Pakistan during the first decade of its existence. Dependency theory is ‘a set of theories’ which asserts that the inability of the third world countries to achieve sustainable levels of development was due to their structural ‘dependence on the advanced capitalist world’ (A Dictionary of Sociology [Oxford: OUP, 1998], 150-51). These theories were advanced in opposition to modernization theory which anticipated that less developed countries would ultimately catch up with the developed world if they followed a pattern of development similar to that of the developed world.

Signed by the Examining Committee: Name Signature Date Advisor: Yaregal Assabie (PhD) __________ __________ Examiner: Dida Midekso (PhD) __________ __________ Examiner: Minale Ashagrie (PhD) __________ __________ Abstract Grammar checking is the process of checking for grammatical correctness by verifying the syntax and morphology of a sentence according to the used language. For languages such As English, Arabic, Afaan Oromo, and Amharic, many efforts have been made to develop grammar checking systems. Because natural languages differ in their morphology and grammar, it's difficult to apply a grammar checker of one language to another. Although an attempt was made to develop a grammar checker for Tigrinya, the grammar checker is unable to identify the relationship between words in a sentence, parsing complex and compound sentences, and it produces possible sentence structures with syntactically correct but semantically non-sense sentences. The use of phrase- structure grammar notation for statistical and rule-based methods causes the majority of these issues because it has a complicated representation but it allows a limited level of grammar analysis.

Pawar 3 1Department of Computer Engineering, Vishwakarma Institute of Information Technology, Pune, India 2,3 School of Computer Sciences, North Maharashtra University, Jalgaon, India ABSTRACT Natural Language processing is an interdisciplinary branch of linguistic and computer science studied under the Artificial Intelligence (AI) that gave birth to an allied area called ‘Computational Linguistics’ which focuses on processing of natural languages on computational devices. A natural language consists of many sentences which are meaningful linguistic units involving one or more words linked together in accordance with a set of predefined rules called ‘grammar’. Grammar checking is fundamental task in the formal world that validates sentences syntactically as well as semantically. Grammar Checker tool is a prominent tool within language engineering. Our review draws on the till date development of various Natural Language grammar checkers to look at past, present and the future in the present context. Our review covers common grammatical errors , overview of grammar checking process, grammar checkers of various languages with the aim of seeking their approaches, methodologies and performance evaluation, which would be great help for developing new tool and system as a whole. The survey concludes with the discussion of different features included in existing grammar checkers of foreign languages as well as a few Indian Languages. KEYWORDS Natural Language Processing, Computational Linguistics, Writing errors,Grammatical mistakes, Grammar Checker 1. INTRODUCTION Language is a means of communication, particularly in human beings, that has origin in natural thoughts regardless of any planning or motivation.
