초록

This study examines the characteristic use of Resultive Conjunctive Adverbials (RCAs) by Korean second language (L2) learners and whether it is affected by their different proficiency levels. The results point to two notable discrepancies between the L2 learners and the native speakers of English: overuse and over-reliance on limited items in the L2 learner corpus. The Korean learners use RCAs more than native speakers and this tendency for overuse decreases as the level goes up. In addition, the Korean students show over-reliance on the limited item “so,” which can be attributable to their lack of register-awareness. As the level goes up, the tendency to over-rely on the informal “so” decreases. These results evidence some links between the proficiency level and the characteristic use of RCAs by Korean L2 learners.

Abstract

This study examines the characteristic use of Resultive Conjunctive Adverbials (RCAs) by Korean second language (L2) learners and whether it is affected by their different proficiency levels. The results point to two notable discrepancies between the L2 learners and the native speakers of English: overuse and over-reliance on limited items in the L2 learner corpus. The Korean learners use RCAs more than native speakers and this tendency for overuse decreases as the level goes up. In addition, the Korean students show over-reliance on the limited item “so,” which can be attributable to their lack of register-awareness. As the level goes up, the tendency to over-rely on the informal “so” decreases. These results evidence some links between the proficiency level and the characteristic use of RCAs by Korean L2 learners.
