What is "interlanguage"?
Interlanguage is a temporary, evolving form of language that learners develop as they move toward fluency in a second language. It combines elements from the learner's native language with aspects of the target language, resulting in a unique linguistic system that reflects the speaker's current level of proficiency. Interlanguage changes over time as learners gain more understanding and correct mistakes, but it may still include errors or unusual patterns. This concept highlights the stages of language learning and how learners gradually acquire the rules and structures of the new language.
