This research delves into the criteria and methodologies applied for annotating errors observed in learner language corpora in various studies with multiple mother tongues. It examines the various types and patterns of grammatical errors made by individuals learning the target language. Additionally, it discusses possibilities on how these annotated corpora and the analysis of errors can be utilized in language education and learning processes. A significant aspect of the study involves a comparative analysis of error frequencies in two distinct datasets: a corpus of English writing by Korean EFL learners and another comprising English writing data from Iranian EFL learners. The findings reveal that the most prevalent errors among Korean learners of English are associated with lexicon and article usage, whereas Iranian learners more frequently struggle with word choice and verb-related errors. The study concludes with some pedagogical implications, providing insights for educational institutions and researchers. These are particularly relevant for those interested in applying suitable criteria for annotating learner corpora with grammatical errors. This comprehensive approach aims to enhance the understanding of common errors and improve teaching strategies, thereby facilitating more effective language learning.
