Türk Dili Öğrencilerinde Boş Bir Cümlenin Kullanılması: Bir Arayüz Problemi mi?

Öz

Son yıllarda yapılan araştırmalara göre sözdizim-söylem arayüzündeki yapılar ikidilliler için zafiyet alanı teşkil etmektedir. Arayüz varsayımı (AV) (Sorace, 2006; Sorace & Serratrice, 2009; Sorace, 2011), sözdizim-söylem arayüzü gibi durumlarda, sözdizim dışarıdan diğer dışsal bilişim (kognitif) sistemlerle karşılaştığında diller arası karışma meydana geldiğini ve bunun ikinci dil öğrenicileri için zorluk teşkil ettiğini ileri sürer. Başta, diller arası karışmanın iki dilin sözdizimsel özellikleri kısmen örtüştüğü zaman (seçeneksel artış dolayısıyla) meydana geldiği öne sürülmüştü. Ancak daha sonraki çalışmalar (Bini, 1993; Margaza e Bel 2006) diller arası karışmanın iki tipolojik olarak benzer dil konuşan ikidillilerde meydana geldiğini göstermiştir. Bu araştırma, İtalyanca'yı İkinci dil (D2) olarak öğrenen orta ve ileri seviye Türk öğrencilerde kapalı ve boş zamir dağılımı (konusunda) AV'yi test etmektedir.

Use of the null subject in the Turkish language learners: an interface problem?

Abstract

The research carried out in the recent years indicates that the structures at the syntax-discourse interface fall in a vulnerable domain for bilinguals (Sorace, 2011 for review). Interface Hypothesis (IH) (Sorace, 2006; Sorace & Serratrice, 2009; Sorace, 2011) proposes that cross-linguistic interference occurs when syntax encounter other external cognitive systems like in the case of syntax-discourse interface so that it becomes the locus of difficulties for L2 learners Initially, it was proposed that cross-linguistic interference occurs when syntactic features of the two languages partially overlap (due to the rise of optionality. However, the later studies ((Bini, 1993; Margaza e Bel 2006).) found cross-linguistic interference to occur in bilinguals speaking two typologically similar languages. This study tests the HI with intermediate and advanced Turkish students learning Italian as an L2 on the distribution of overt and null pronoun.
