The phenomenon of linguistic interference (based on the speech of Becky G and Karol G)
The author examines the phenomenon of linguistic interference at different levels of language from the perspective of Spanish and English. The aim of the research is to determine the similarities and differences in the manifestation of interference depending on the individual's native and second language. The author studies the classification of speech errors resulting from interference in terms of their frequency of occurrence. The article demonstrates existing research on the topic and conducts an analysis of the speech of English and Spanish speakers to identify patterns of interference depending on the speaker's native language. Using interviews with American singer Becky G and Colombian singer Karol G, the author analyzes instances of interference and concludes that there is a relationship between the interviewee's native language and the errors they make as a result of language contacts. The article provides examples of phonetic, grammatical, and lexical interference. The research involved methods of observation, comparison, as well as qualitative and quantitative analysis. The scientific novelty of the research lies in identifying specific patterns of interference based on the contacting languages. As a result of this research, conclusions have been drawn about the relationship between the frequency of speech errors due to the speaker's native language interference. The study proposes the necessity of considering the phenomenon of interference within the framework of a specific language pair. An answer has been obtained to the question of whether interference always manifests more significantly at the phonetic level of language. The author attempts to trace the relationship between the manifestation of interference and the specific language pair of the speaker. A comparative analysis of speech fragments from individuals with different language pairs has been conducted. A tendency for interference to occur depending on the speaker's native language in the context of English and Spanish has been identified.
