dc.description.abstractEnglish as a global language established a vast educational manifestation within algerian academic establishment, most of the undergraduates prefer EFL as a study specialty and future projection to academic research and theyattempt to reach the native-like standard, unfortunately most of them fail to do so due to many reasons. Sometimes learners encounter words that they cannot pronounce correctly, even if they correct themselves or have been corrected they cannot produce the right pronunciation, and the mispronounced words are not to be corrected even if they attempt to do so, this phenomenon is known as Fossilization. This exploratory research deals withthe overall aspect of the notion (the evolution, the development and potential eradication). The main objectives of this study is to see the nature of the concerned notion, the most common fossilized aspects that Algerian EFL learners produce and the teachers' point of view about this sociolinguistic phenomenon, this empirical study has been introduced via a mix method approach which means that the present work contains qualitative and quantitative methods, qualitative methods include classroom observation ( Piece of the furniture observation) and recording where a passage of a poem has been given to third year students of english at Larbi Ben M'Hidi university and quantitative one via questionnaire where EFL teachers' perspective toward phonological fossilization was required, the results that have been found did meet the study's expectation, in the sense that new fossilized pattern has been found and their main causes such as borrowing from the french language, difficulties in differentiating between sounds, lack of drill and lack of communication.ar
