Abstract AR
يأتي التقابل بين الصفات و الظروف في اللغة الانكليزية من ان معظم الظروف مشتقة من الصفات .نوع اخر من التقابل بين الصفات و الظروف يأتي من التقابل بين معنى جملتين احداهما تحتوي على صفة و الاخرى تحتوي على الظرف المقابل لتلك الصفة.
بعض الظروف في اللغة الانكليزية لها نفس شكل الصفة و بعض الظروف تكتب بطريقتين : احدهما مشتق من الصفة بإضافة(-LY)و الاخر له نفس شكل الصفة .تبحث هذه الدراسة في اداء طلبة الجامعة العراقيين الدارسين اللغة الانكليزية لغة اجنبية على تمييز و استعمال الصفات و الظروف المتقابلة.
و على هذا الاساس قدمت الدراسة الفرضيات التالية : 1-يتوقع ان يواجه الطلبة صعوبات في تمييز الصفات التي تنتهي ب(-LY) من الظروف.
2-بالنسبة للظروف التي تكتب بطريقتين، يتوقع ان يواجه الطلبة صعوبات في تمييز أي منهما يقابل الصفة.
3-يتوقع ان يواجه الطلبة صعوبة في اعادة صياغة الجمل التي تحتوي على صفات بجمل اخرى لها نفس المعنى لكنها تحتوي على الظروف المقابلة لتلك الصفات و بالعكس.
Abstract EN
The correspondence between adjectives and adverbs comes from that most of the adverbs are derived from adjectives by suffixation.
Furthermore, there is, sometimes, correspondence between constructions containing adjectives and constructions containing the corresponding adverbs.
What is more, some adverbs have the same form of their corresponding adjectives and some adverbs have two forms: one of them is similar to the adjective and the other ends with (-ly).
The problem of this study rises when Iraqi EFL university students fail to distinguish adverbs from adjectives as they consider the adjectives that end with (ly) as adverbs.
For the adverbs that have two forms, the students fail to recognize which form corresponds the adjective.
Also, the students fail to paraphrase sentences with adjectives to sentences with their corresponding adverbs and vise-versa.
Accordingly, it is hypothesized that : 1- Iraqi EFL university students are expected to face difficulty in recognizing the adverbs and distinguishing them from the adjectives that end with (-ly).
2- For the adverbs that have two forms one of them is similar to the adjective and the other is inflected with (-ly), such learners are expected to face more difficulty in recognizing the form of the adverb that corresponds the adjective.
3- The same students are expected to face difficulty in paraphrasing sentences with adjectives to sentences having their corresponding adverbs and vise-versa.
