Abstract:

This is the first book on the acquisition of the German case system by foreign
language learners. It explores how learners in their interlanguage progress
from the total absence to the presence of a case system. This development is
characterized by an evolvement from marking the argument’s position to marking
the argument’s actual function. Theoretically couched within Processability
Theory, the book deals with the feature unification and the mapping processes
involved in case marking, and critically examines previous findings on German
case acquisition. Empirically, the book consists of longitudinal data of 11
foreign language learners of German, which was collected over a period of 2
years. This book will be useful to anyone interested in the acquisition of
German and in the acquisition of case systems in general.
