Errors are then identified and .categorized to trace their causes. The analysis of the errors along with the interviews of students and teachers show that vocabulary acquisition is one of the most important factors that affect the writing proficiency of the Chinese students especially the college students. Reasons for these errors are analyzed and suggestions are Out forward for reference.展开更多

In this paper, errors per se were collected from 107 writing samples of Chinese college students, and then investigated from a variety of linguistic perspectives. Traditional theoretical approaches, i.e. CA and EA, are incorporated in the source analysis for a more comprehensive interpretation. Hopefully, the findings of the study will shed lights on lexical instruction and acquisition in the field of SLA.展开更多
