| dc.description.abstract | The current study is mainly concerned with the investigation of the grammatical errors made by secondary school learners’ in their writing compositions. It aims at identifying the types of grammatical errors that are most frequent in learners’ exam compositions of the second term English exam and determine the sources behind these errors. In order to conduct this study, we have analyzed a sample of 70 exam papers written by third year students in the academic year 2018/2019. We followed the procedure of error analysis adopted by Pits Corder, namely collection, identification, description and explanation. To analyze the data collected, we adopted the mixed method approach, combining both quantitative and qualitative procedure of data gathering and data analysis. The results obtained reveals that third year students make different types of errors in different categories while they write. These identified errors are mainly due to the lack of the knowledge of the target language, overgeneralization and incomplete application of the English language rules and/or interference from previously learned languages. | en |
