Abstract EN

This study is an attempt to investigate and identify the grammatical types of English language errors in writing English essays written by 100 Omani university students enrolled in the “foundation program” in the College of Arts and Sciences, College of Engineering& Architecture, College of Economics, Management & Information Systems and the College of Pharmacy and Nursing at Nizwa university and to find out the possible causes and the sources as to why these errors occur.

The results of this study have confirmed the hypotheses on which it was based.

The conclusion is that there are different problems that these students face, which impede their proficiency in the target language.

Hence, some recommendations are suggested as an attempt to provide some possible solutions.
