Unintentional Reverse Transfer from L2 (English) to L1 (Spanish) in Tertiary Levels

This study attempts to reveal whether there is unintentional reverse transfer L2→L1 (English-Spanish) in the oral L1 production of university learners in formal contexts. The languages used by learners influence each other, and this transfer may occur from the first to the second language (direct tr...
