From mother tongue to languages foreigners: what role should language play maternal in the acquisition of a language foreign?
Keywords:
acquisition of a foreign language, mother languageAbstract
Foreign language acquisition raises the issue of the differences between mother tongue and foreign languages acquisition processes. Another issue concerns the influence of mother tongue characteristics on the acquisition of a foreign language. This work attempts to answer the question: ‘‘How do we learn a foreign language?’’ A large portion of this paper is devoted to the questioning of the role of mother tongue in the learning process. Lorsque nous soulevons le problème de l’acquisition d’une langue seconde, la grande question qui vient à l’esprit est : en quelle mesure cette acquisition diffère-t-elle de l’acquisition de la langue maternelle ? Cette première grande question entraîne une seconde : en quelle mesure les caractéristiques spécifiques de la langue maternelle vont-elles influer sur l’acquisition de la langue seconde ?
