【摘要】 三语习得作为尚在探索的领域,其研究远远落后于二语习得。然而近些年越来越多的国内外学者关注三语习得的发展。Jorda(2005)认为,三语习得是个独立的领域应视为整个应用语言学领域的一个分支。本文旨在探讨在中国,一语(汉语)和二语(英语)对三语(日语)初学者词汇习得的跨语际影响。总共40名来自大连外国语学院英语专业二年级的学生参加了此项研究。依据英语专业四级成绩将其分为两个水平组(每组20名学生)。然后每组被试学生被要求根据所示图片以填空的形式填入相对应的汉字词(来自一语)或外来语词(来自二语)以完成给出的日语句子。本文还采用了问卷调查和回述性访谈的方法以定性研究与定量研究相结合的方式来收集数据。通过本研究主要发现：1.由于二语的近因效果以及其独特的外语地位和与三语的心理语言距离,二语(英语)在三语(日语)的词汇习得过程中发挥主要影响；2.二语在三语词汇口试过程中的影响比笔试的影响更大；3.二语对英语高水平学生的三语词汇习得的影响大于其对低水平学生的影响。本文具有理论及实践的双重研究意义。一方面本研究能够帮助国内外语言学家对中国的三语习得可以更好的了解,另一方面可以帮助教师制定针对性的教学策略以促进学生三语的词汇习得。同时还可以帮助学生增加语言意识以提高三语习得的效率。更多还原

【Abstract】 As an under-explored field, the research on third language acquisition still lags behind that on second language acquisition. Yet in recent years more and more scholars both in China and abroad have paid attention to its development. Jorda (2005) has stated "third language acquisition is a unique phenomenon that deserves consideration as a subfield within the global area of applied linguistics"(p.9).This paper attempts to investigate the cross-linguistic influence of LI (Chinese) and L2(English) on Chinese L3(Japanese) beginners’ lexical acquisition. Totally40second-year English majors from Dalian University of Foreign Languages participated in this study. The students were divided into two proficiency groups (N=20for each group) according to their scores of English Majors Band-4. Moreover, each group were asked to fill in the L3sentences’blanks using the borrowed words either Kanji (L1-origin) or Katakana (L2-origin) corresponding to the pictures. This study also involves questionnaire and interview. Both quantitative and qualitative study methods are involved in this paper.The major findings show:1. L2(English) serves as the main factor influencing L3(Japanese) lexical acquisition on those Chinese university students;2. it is proved that L2(English) has greater impact on L3(Japanese) oral acquisition than that on written acquisition due to the factors of perceived language distance, recency as well as the foreign language effect of L2status;3. L2has more influence on higher English proficient students in their acquisition of L3.The findings have significance in both theory and practice. On one hand it can help linguists have a better understanding of third language acquisition in China, and on the other hand it may help teachers make teaching strategies to improve the acquiring of Japanese vocabularies. Moreover, the findings may help the students raise their linguistic awareness so as to improve their third language acquisition.更多还原
