This document discusses cross-linguistic issues in teaching English as a foreign language. It explores how a learner's first language (L1), in this case Arabic, can interfere with their acquisition of English grammar. The author analyzes writing samples from English learners in Saudi Arabia and finds evidence that their L1 influences aspects of English grammar. The study aims to understand this cross-linguistic influence in order to develop effective teaching strategies.

This document discusses the role of applied linguistics in teaching English in Saudi Arabia. It explains that applied linguistics helps English teachers analyze errors made by students and identify areas for improvement.

The document provides several examples of how the sound systems and specific phonemes of Arabic and English differ, which challenges Saudi students in pronouncing English. Applied linguistics gives teachers tools to understand sources of errors and design effective teaching strategies that account for the influences of students' first language.
