Abstract

The aim of the paper is to investigate the methods of error analysis in second language acquisition. The review of approaches to error analysis is based on the works of American researchers and at the same time is a short presentation of main schools of second language acquisition in the United States. The author discusses behaviorism, cognitivism, and the dialogical school. He takes into consideration not only the concept of error, but also the methods of error analysis.
