本研究探讨了母语为巴西葡萄牙语的人在英语/ε/和/æ/习得过程中，母语和第二语言之间的语音相似性、迁移和标记性之间的相互关系。迁移和标记性充分解释了较差学习者的行为，但这些因素并不能解释全球外国口音评估的两种声音的习得率：尽管/æ/准确性随着全球口音的提高而提高，/ε/准确性则下降。本文认为，母语和第二语言之间的语音相似性是中介语中/ε/和/æ/过度概括或相互作用的重要因素。
This study investigates the interrelationship of phonological similarity between L1 and L2, transfer, and markedness as they relate to the acquisition of English /ε/ and /æ/ by native speakers of Brazilian Portuguese. Transfer and markedness adequately account for the behavior of poorer learners, but these factors do not explain the rate of acquisition of the two sounds as assessed by global foreign accent: Whereas /æ/ accuracy increased as global accent improved, /ε/ accuracy decreased. It is suggested that phonetic and phonological similarity between L1 and L2 are important factors which motivated overgeneralization or interaction of /ε/ and /æ/ within the inter-language.
