Author: Dimanche Lingoso Lifengo
ABSTRACT
This paper attempts to find out the different kinds and sources of errors that the first and second grades students of the English department at the Faculty of Letters and English Civilisations at Kisangani University have made on orthography, pronunciation and stressing.
The main objective of the current paper is to present findings of the research that has been conducted and to briefly propose a sample of the way teachers should help students solve difficulties they face on the three parameters—orthography, Stressemics and pronunciation.
Keywords: interlingual, generalization, intralingual, confusion, extrapolation
