Grammatical Errors Of English Language Writing: A Comparative Study Of English And Bengali Medium Higher Secondary Schools Of Agartala

Abstract

The paper examines about the comparison of grammatical errors in English writing among students in Bengali and English-medium higher secondary schools in Agartala. The intended aims of the study are to analyse the variations between the two mediums and pinpoint the prevalent kinds of grammatical errors. The study also examines how students’ writing ability is affected by exposure to the language (English), teaching strategies, and native language influence. Significant variations in the frequency and kinds of errors are highlighted in the paper which emphasise the need for better grammar education catered to students’ language backgrounds and learning environments. Practical recommendations for instructors and educators to improve English writing abilities in both media are included in the concluding part of this paper.
