Abstract | Tests three hypotheses regarding the use of object relative pronouns by native (NS) and non-native (NNS) speakers of Standard American English: (1) pronoun choice by NNSs differs from that of NSs; (2) "wh", "that," and "zero" are used variably by both groups; and (3) increased exposure to native speaking environments causes NNSs to shift to NS norms. Data and analyses support the hypotheses. (41 references) (Author/CK) |
