الملخص الإنجليزي

The present study is an attempt to investigate some difficulties that university students of English face when using quantifiers in their written performance.

English quantifiers create special problems for native language learners.

It aims at investigating the Iraqi university students of English the ability to recognize and produce quantifiers and Suggesting remedial treatment for the alleviation of these difficulties.

It is hypothesized that Students of English are not fully aware of using quantifiers; therefore, they use them randomly.

Consequently, students might be interrupted by interference of their native language so; they fail to master the recognition and production of quantifiers.

To investigate the validity of the hypothesis, twenty samples of 3rd year students of English written performance have been selected and analyzed to detect their ability to distinguish each type of quantifiers.

The study concludes that students make grammatical errors concerning quantifiers due to two main reasons: interlingual and intralingual; both affect the way they compose their essays.

The findings and conclusions arrived at in this study are expected to be worthy to pedagogical planners and planning, and for other academic purposes.
