| dc.description.abstract | In the system of acquiring a foreign language, pronunciation accuracy is customarily perturbed by the appearance of the native language factor. Thus, Constantinian and Berber students are an exemplary evidence of such phenomenon which is the basis of our research. Our investigation is concerned with identifying and comparing the phonological errors made by first LMD students from two independent clusters; Constantinians and Berbers. A brief theoretical framework covers aspects of pronunciation and first language phonological constraint with an emphasis on highlighting the similarities and differences between English and the native language varieties; Berber and Constantinian dialect. The fieldwork is conducted following a corpus analysis with a voice recording technique to collect oral data. The findings obtained from the quantitative examination of the gathered data reveal that students from Constantine region are more influenced by the native language phonology than students who are from Berber origins. On account of these findings, a number of pedagogical implications are offered to teachers and course designers with reference to the restraints that occurred during the process of the scrutiny. | ar |
