dc.description.abstract
In this paper we intend to show how L1 influences the Catalan existential
sentences produced by Chinese learners of Catalan. This study is based
on data generated by means of semi-structured interviews to 6 adult learners
living in North-Eastern Catalonia. In order to better understand the Catalan
existential sentences they produce, we also take into account their production
of attributive, locative and possessive sentences, as well as their use of the
verbal inflection in L2 and the use of the clitic hi, which also appears in the
existential verb haver-hi. We conclude that all these factors are relevant to
explain why Catalan existential constructions are so difficult to acquire for
Chinese learners
