A Study of Application of Universal Grammar UG to English Education

普遍语法认为日语和英语的基本结构彼此相似。我认为日本的英语学习者不需要从UG的角度学习所有的英语，他们需要学习日语和英语之间的不同方面。在这个报告中，我提到了语义单位或语义角色、词序、语法类别作为普遍的方面。UG在英语教育中的应用，是为了让学习者在不知不觉中习得母语的过程中，没有意识到英语和日语之间的相似性，通过有意识的培养，让他们知道语言的共性。通用语法有助于促进英语学习。我们的教学应该引导学习者有意识地提高语言共性，使他们在UG的基础上学习英语与日语的差异。我提出了从语义角色角度生成英语句子的方法。我提到了语义角色的识别和词序的识别，然后提出了如何找到对学习者生成的输入应用语法驱动的触发器。提出并举例说明了UG方法在基于任务的学习中的应用。

Universal grammar claims that Japanese and English basic structures are similar to each other. I claim that Japanese learners of English do not have to learn all of English from the viewpoints of UG and that they have to learn different aspects between Japanese and English.I referred to semantic units or semantic roles, word orders, grammatical categories as universal aspects in this report. Application of UG to English education is to get the learners to know language commonality through conscious raising since they do not recognize that there is similarity among English and Japanese as they have acquired mother tongue unconsciously. Universal grammar will help to facilitate English learning. Our teaching should lead the learners to the conscious raising of language commonality and get them to learn the English differences from Japanese on a basis of UG.I proposed the method of generating English sentences in terms of semantic roles. I referred to identification of semantic roles and recognition of word orders, and then proposed how to find out the trigger of applying grammatical rides to the inputs the learners have generated. What is more, I proposed and illustrated the application of UG method to task based learning.
