Location of deviations from spelling standards in words from pupils’ texts

Summary/Abstract: The knowledge of the frequency of the location of an incorrect spelling of a word is significant in intrasubject integration in teaching Polish. A teacher having such information can introduce spelling exercises preventing the most typical errors in inflectional or morphological units. In order to identify the most frequent locations of incorrect spelling, 250 casual texts of 4th-6th class primary school pupils were used. Deviations from spelling standards occur more often in inflectional units than in morphological ones and over five times more frequently in the inflectional ending than on the boundary between the inflectional stem and ending. The most common places of deviations from spelling standards related to the morphological structure of a word is the suffi x, the prefi x, the boundary between the prefi x and the root word, the boundary between the root word and the suffi x. Particular attention should be paid to female nouns ending with –ia since there are several places where spelling errors can be made in their infl ection paradigm.
