| Research Abstract |
This study observed the similarities and differences in emotional expressions regarding writing and speaking by English as the first and a second language. Production experiments were carried out to investigate the usage of emotional expressions by native speakers of English and Japanese college students. In the writing experiment, the two groups of subjects were instructed to write a love letter and a letter of condolence. We observed different features in the patterns of the letters written by the native speakers of English and those by the Japanese learners respectively. In the speaking experiment, all the subjects were instructed to read a love letter and a letter of condolence to make tape letters. The results indicated that it was easier for the Japanese learners to express the emotion of condolence than emotion of affection.
