THE MESS IN FRANKFURT. Common mistakes in English made by German speakers

Fachbuch aus dem Jahr 2014 im Fachbereich Englisch - Sonstiges, Note: First degree, Euro-Schulen Bad Kreuznach (Institute of European languages), Veranstaltung: Foreign language correspondence, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The fact that English and German are closely related does not necessarily make English learning easy for German learners. Certain errors re-occur.
This work explores aspects of the German language that interfere with the correct production of English sentences. It is of course always important to tackle a problem from its root. That is why the error source is a good approach. Understanding an evil is the best way of combating it.
German learners find it difficult to explain why they keep on making certain errors even after many years of learning. This work takes them back to the error source.
