| description | Acquisition of object pronouns in L2 French is always a source of problems for every learner regardless of their L1. Based on a study from Grüter and Crago (2012), we ran an elicited production experiment as well as a Reading Span task with two groups of learners whose L1 is German and Mandarin Chinese. A group of French native speakers was added as a control group. We looked at the acquisition of object pronouns in different contexts and depending on the verb type. Our results show that the two groups of learners have a similar pattern of production. Furthermore, reflexive pronouns seem to be the most difficult type of pronouns to master for both groups of Mandarin Chinese and German. This indicates that reflexives are different from other object pronouns and more difficult to master. Our findings suggest that influence of the L1 and level in L2 French are not the major factors for explaining Second Language Acquisition of object pronouns, but that Working Memory does play a role as well. |
