Quelques considérations sur l’acquisition du nombre des noms roumains par les locuteurs natifs du français
Reflections on the Acquisition of Romanian Noun Plurals by French Speaking Students

Summary/Abstract: Forming the plural of nouns is one of the most difficult chapters of the nominal inflection for the native French speakers studying the Romanian language, and this is mainly due to the far larger system of oppositions in Romanian as compared to French. The major goal of the present paper is to underline several particular aspects concerning the obstacles faced by French speaking students in the process of learning plural formation in the Romanian language, while insisting upon the factors favouring interferential errors (essentially, false number analogies with elements in the native tongue – that is French) as well as upon pedagogical strategies which might be used in order to prevent the appearance of such errors.
