In consideration of the investment returns in 2017, it was found that revenues are higher than expenditures.

Predicates in Chinese and English

Yanhong Mu, Apichai Rungruang — Wed, 17 Jun 2020 00:00:00 +0700

The predicate plays an important role in a sentence structure. Without it, the reader or hearer does not understand what the subject does, possesses, or is. In some languages such as English, without the predicate, a complete sentence cannot be constructed. To draw an overall picture of predicates, this academic paper aims to investigate the predicates in Chinese and English. The main focus is placed on their forms rather than meanings and uses, since when a learner starts learning a new language, s/he is initially introduced to the form before the other two elements are taken into account. Besides the forms of predicates, this academic paper also presents the similarities and differences between the two languages. The final part covers the pedagogical implications to pave the way for teachers to employ the forms of second language predicates (L2), specifically Chinese, to a new language learner.

Investigation of grammatical errors committed by Turkmen learners of English

Sonthida Keyuravong, Didar Seyitkuliyev, Thanis Bunsom — Fri, 23 Aug 2019 00:00:00 +0700

The domination of English as a global language has penetrated every corner of the world and that includes a Central Asian country, Turkmenistan. English has replaced Russian and is currently a compulsory language for the Turkmens. However, little has been known of Turkmen learners’ English proficiency. This study was therefore conducted to investigate such issues by analysing paragraphs written by 17 participants and identifying their grammatical errors. The theoretical framework for the analysis is adapted from Byrd and Benson (1994) who divided grammatical errors into three stages with 12 sub-categories. The results demonstrate that the highest number of errors occurred in the second stage (intermediate problems), which are mainly related to word-level errors. It is however worth noting that the number of errors does not necessarily correspond with the severity of errors. Arguably, these grammatical errors of Turkmen English learners may be caused by their native language interference.
