OverviewThis title presents an extended analysis of the development of L2 Spanish past tense morphology among L1 English-speaking learners. The study addresses three major quesitons: whatis the developmental pattern of acquisition of past tense verbal morphology among tutored learners? What are the relevant factors that may account for the particular distribution of morphological endings? How does instruction affect the movement from one stage to the next? The analysis provides a reassessment of the general claim of Andersen's lexical aspect hypothesis and proposes minor changes that may render the hypothesis more appropriate for L2 classroom learning. The study includes an overview of theoretical positions on the notion of lexical versus grammatical aspects and a comparison of the findings from previous empirical studies on the developmment of past tense verbal morphology among both classroom and naturalistic learners.
