초록
Given a lack of references directly addressing obstacles in learning English as a foreign language, the authors attempt to fill the gap by identifying specific grammatical points that are particularly difficult for Korean English language learners(ELLs) to conceptualize. In connection with the first language(L1) characteristics and dual-language operations, lexical, phrasal, conventional, and psycholinguistic complexities of English verbs are discussed. A better understanding of ELLs' L1 properties and functions, negative L1 transfer, and ELLs' persistent errors made in the production of expressive English is a necessary condition, if not a sufficient one, for ELLs' escalating English learning and acquisition. Limitations and future directions are discussed.
