Intuicja językowa i jej funkcja oceniająca: na przykładzie języka francuskiego jako obcego
Evaluating function of language intuition: on the example of French as a foreign language

Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses some of the qualities and weaknesses of language intuition,understood as tacit knowledge or mental ability, that allows language users to makejudgements quickly and decisively, especially when they have to evaluate grammaticality/ungrammaticality of sentences. In the paper, we present a pilot research conducted ina group of students of French as a foreign language at A2 level. The study shows thatevery language user, regardless of her/his level of mastery, uses linguistic intuition.The study also shows that users’ intuition at the A2 level help best when the learners dealwith regular forms and forms with high frequency of use. However, when the learner hasto apply more than one rule in the same sentence, following intuition might be less reliable.
