INTERLANGUAGE AT A2+/B1. OBSERVATION ON THIRD-PERSON PRESENT SUBJUNCTIVE FORMS
(Abstract)
This study examines the use of third-person present subjunctive forms by Romanian L2 speakers at the A2+/B1 level, based on oral production data. Correct usage was observed in only 35% of cases, with errors frequently involving substitutions with indicative or infinitive forms, pointing to rule overgeneralization, linguistic interference, or instructional transfer. Individual progress varied significantly, with learners following one of four patterns: upward trajectory, linear progression, U-shaped development, or inverted U-shaped patterns. Qualitative findings revealed overextension of the morpheme să in early stages, self-correction strategies, and common contexts for subjunctive use. These findings offer a detailed understanding of how learners develop and refine their use of complex grammatical forms like the subjunctive, providing valuable perspectives on interlanguage development at the A2+/B1 levels.
