Adviser: Yen-hui Li.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Southern California, 2008.

This dissertation is an investigation of the possible influence of native language English (L1), and universal grammar (UG) on the acquisition of a non-native language Chinese (L2), through an examination of how English-speaking L2 Chinese learners acquire the knowledge of the interpretation of Chinese sentences containing negation (Neg) and numerically quantified noun phrases (QNP) in object position.

520 $a This dissertation is an investigation of the possible influence of native language English (L1), and universal grammar (UG) on the acquisition of a non-native language Chinese (L2), through an examination of how English-speaking L2 Chinese learners acquire the knowledge of the interpretation of Chinese sentences containing negation (Neg) and numerically quantified noun phrases (QNP) in object position.
520 $a Two research questions are investigated: (1) Can English-speaking L2 Chinese learners overcome the Poverty-of-the-Stimulus problem and produce native-like interpretation of L2 sentences containing negation and a numerical NP in object position? (2) If English-speaking L2 Chinese learners do overcome the POS problem, what factors in the L2 can help them to reset the parameters?
520 $a Two experiments were carried out to answer these research questions. Experiment 1 employed the methodology of Truth Value Judgment Task to test English-speaking L2 Chinese learners' interpretation of sentences containing negation and a numerical NP in object position. The results suggest that L1 transfer occurred in the initial state of acquisition, but the POS problem can be overcome due to the accessibility of UG to L2 learners. Experiment 2 tests predications made by syntactic analyses on second language acquisition to see whether the acquisition of the interpretation of sentences containing negation and a numerical NP in object position is related to the acquisition of other aspects of the Chinese language. The test results indicated that the acquisition of the correct placement of adjuncts is not the trigger helping L2 learners successfully acquire the knowledge to interpret sentences containing negation and a numerical NP in object position. The knowledge that Chinese numerical NPs are not free to take subject position might be regulated under the same parameters as the acquisition of the interpretation of sentences containing negation and a numerical NP in object position. It is concluded that both the L1 and UG may inform L2 acquisition of phenomena at the syntax-semantics interpretive interface.
