Abstract

With the development of globalization, error analysis in second language acquisition theory has received increasing attention from scholars. Significant progress has been made in error feedback, correction, and treatment. In this article, the five steps proposed by Corder of collecting, identifying, describing, explaining, and evaluating errors are used to analyze the statistical data and elaborate on the oral syntactic error classification of one case. The errors are divided into five categories: tense, consistency, component missing, composition of redundant, and mismatch, and each is classified in more details. Then, reasons accounting for those errors are explained from the negative transfer of native language, target language and cultural factors, learning strategies and communicative strategies, and influence of learning environment. Finally, it is suggested that we should establish correct concepts in the face of errors and apply error analysis to teaching practice.
