A Psycholinguistic and Error-Analysis Framework of Second Language Typology: Diagnosing Cross-Linguistic Phonological, Morpho-Syntactic, and Orthographic Transference in Regional-Medium Higher Secondary Cohorts

Abstract This study provides a detailed psycholinguistic error analysis examining how a student's native language structure affects the acquisition of English as a second language. The research focuses on a randomized cohort of N=300 higher secondary students within the Karauli district of Eastern Rajasthan. Grounded in Robert Lado’s Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis, Larry Selinker’s Interlanguage Theory, and Stephen Krashen’s Monitor Paradigm, the study categorizes and tracks the underlying causes of recurring errors across written composition, oral performance, and reading and listening comprehension tests.
The analytical results show that native language interference functions as a major source of error production, appearing through specific phonological patterns, literal syntactic translations, and subject-verb agreement challenges. Additionally, the study identifies widespread errors driven by overgeneralization and incomplete application of target language rules, which are further aggravated by performance anxiety and high affective filters. The paper presents a comprehensive structural model detailing the steps of second language error development. It concludes with evidence-based pedagogical strategies, emphasizing the need for targeted contrastive awareness, systematic pronunciation practice, and collaborative editing exercises to help learners overcome native language interference and build long-term communicative competence.
