초록
In this paper, we argue that the overused extra copula found in L1 Korean learners of English is neither a topic marker nor an underdeveloped functional category. Instead, we claim that the appearance of the extra copula be in L2 English of Korean learners has real substance, attributed to L1 transfer from the construction we dub 'approximate cleft.' We also claim that the correct use of another normal copula in the L2 English be-Adj construction, despite the lack of its direct L1 source, can be attributed to the facilitation caused by positive L1 transfer via the similarity of copula in nominal predicative construction between English and Korean. The current research results suggest that in the course of L2 acquisition, two languages can be mixed through L1 interference and L2 knowledge.

We also claim that the correct use of another normal copula in the L2 English be-Adj construction, despite the lack of its direct L1 source, can be attributed to the facilitation caused by positive L1 transfer via the similarity of copula in nominal predicative construction between English and Korean. The current research results suggest that in the course of L2 acquisition, two languages can be mixed through L1 interference and L2 knowledge.
