Title The Study of Lexical Errors in Chinese College Non-English Major Students’ writings
Abstract
As a branch of Applied Linguistics, error analysis is important and valuable for the
study on second language acquisition. It not only has enriched the research
achievements of second language teaching methodology, but also has helped the
teachers know about the learners’ linguistic competence and learn about how far
towards the teaching goal the learner has progressed. The study collects 120
compositions written by non-English major students. And it focuses on the lexical
errors and tries to discuss from the following three aspects: (a) What are the major
types of lexical errors in the students’ compositions; (b) What are the relevance of
lexical errors and the quality of compositions; (c) What are the sources of the errors and
the ways to solve them. After the discussion of the data, this study finds some solutions
for vocabulary teaching. Teachers should help students to change the wrong ideas about
vocabulary learning and try to avoid lexical errors.

1 Introduction
Errors seem to be an unavoidable phenomenon in the process of learning a foreign language.
This study is designed to analyze lexical errors made by non-English majors in their
writings. By analyzing 120 non-English majors' compositions, this study tries to arouse the
teachers and learners' awareness of the importance of lexis. This may initiate teachers into
the phenomenon and take proper measures to help students reduce lexical errors in writing.

Different researchers have different understanding of the concept of "error", so it is difficult
to define it precisely. There are several different thoughts for consideration. Corder (1973) 非英语专业学生英语写作中的词汇错误分析与对策:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_4257.html
