2010Abstract
The study reported here contributes to investigation of over time interlanguage development in an instructed acquisition setting. In particular, it examines the development of word order within VP in the L3 English of 45 Spanish/ Catalan bilinguals with knowledge of L2 German. The analysis of the data (factorizing procedure, distributional analysis, implicational scaling) suggests that development can be sequenced into stages, though transition across stages is gradual. Moreover, development is constrained by knowledge of a non-native language previously learned (i.e., by crosslinguistic influence). El estudio reportado aquí contribuye a la investigación del desarrollo de la interlengua a largo plazo en un contexto de adquisición formal. En particular, examina el desarrollo del orden de palabras en el SV en la L3 inglés de 45 aprendices bilingües Castellano/ Catalán con conocimiento previo de L2 alemán. El análisis de los datos (proceso de factorización, análisis distribucional, escala...
