Why does my L1 interference keep sabotaging my attempts at mastering CEFR B2 German syntax?
I've been stuck on the subtle word order issues in German for weeks now... My native English patterns keep resurfacing, especially the verb‑second rule in subordinate clauses. I know the theory – the B2 Interlanguage Model, the Wug test examples – but in practice I keep defaulting to English syntax.
- Does anyone notice similar regression after a month of intensive immersion?
- Are there particular drills or corpora (e.g., DWDS, DeReKo) that help isolate the L1 bleed?
- How do you keep the "Satzklammer" stable when your brain keeps defaulting to Subject‑Verb‑Object?
I'm not sure if this is just normal plateauing or something deeper. Any insight would be appreciated.
