Two Kurdish EFL Learners' Cases

This book contains two studies conducted in Raparin university and International university of Erbil in Iraqi Kurdistan Region. The first study is to investigate the third person singular morpheme omission done by the Kurdish EFL learners. The study of inflectional morpheme omission is crucially important in English language learning because this error requires the language teachers and researchers to observe the stages of language learning process attentively. The foreign language learners come across several difficulties in comprehending and using these morphemes that do not exist in their native language. On the other hand, the second study is an attempt to tackle the content of interlanguage which is produced by Kurdish EFL learners and deal with Interlanguage which is a new form of language created by the language learners during the stages of language learning. Interlanguage is different from native language and target language because it is characterized by errors and deviations which are the benchmark of learners¿ progress.
