Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Ghadessy, Mohsen – International Review of Applied Linguistics in Language Teaching, 1980
Discusses the results of an error analysis of 100 English compositions written by university students in Iran. It is suggested that mistakes are not primarily due to interference from the native language, but to developmental errors, similar to errors made in first language acquisition. (Author/AMH)
