中介语中句法迁移的认知研究

论文摘要

语言迁移一直是二语习得和语言教学的核心问题。近年来由于认知语言学和心理语言学的发展,母语在二语学习中的作用得以从多视角重新审视。语言迁移涉及到的学科较多,包括语用学、语言学、社会学、心理学等等,本文着重从句法角度研究语言迁移,运用认知语言学中的典型性理论、心理类型理论和标记性理论构建自己的理论框架,并分别通过问卷调查、语料库分析和访谈对理论框架进行验证。研究表明:1)母语确实影响学习者的第二语言习得;2)语言的典型性、学习者的心理类型以及语言特征的标记性对是否产生语言迁移有着预测作用。语言迁移研究对语言教学的含义包括:1)在语言教学过程中通过对母语和第二语言的比较,归纳出两种语言的相似性和差异性,从而可以预测学生的语言错误;2)通过对语言迁移的研究,教师能够更有效地进行指导教学。
