Register knowledge in advanced learner language (C04)

该项目将通过分析高级德语外语学习者和以德语为母语的对照组产生的口语和书面语料库数据，研究外语学习者如何获得语域能力。我们将测试两个假设：(i)即使是高级学习者也不会像母语人士那样区分语域；（ii）即使是高级学习者也不会像母语人士那样区分语域。母语人士和学习者将首先在同一语域内进行比较，然后跨语域进行比较。在第一阶段，将研究两种不同类型的语域：书面议论文和口语地图任务对话。

The project will investigate how learners of a foreign language acquire register competence by analyzing spoken and written corpus data produced by advanced learners of German as a foreign language and native speaker control groups. Two hypotheses will be tested: (i) Even advanced learners do not distinguish between registers in the same way that native speakers do, and (ii) even advanced learners do not distinguish between registers as much as native speakers do. Native speakers and learners will first be compared within the same register and then across registers. In the first phase, two different types of register will be studied: written argumentative essays on the one hand and spoken map task dialogues on the other.
