ERRORS AND DEVIATIONS IN ENGLISH SONGS AND THEIR IMPACT ON LANGUAGE LEARNERS
Аннотация
Singing songs and memorizing their lyrics is a way of learning foreign languages, and a good addition to the main educational process. However, language mistakes in the lyrics of songs can cause much harm to language learners. The study aims to describe language errors in British and American popular songs and investigate language learners’ attitude towards them. The research methodology was based on a survey conducted among language learners, and an analysis of lyrics of the English songs. The survey results demonstrated that young people are active listeners of songs, and according to most of them, both lyrics and music are important. More than half of the respondents pay attention to the lyrics, which are not always examples of correct language use. The most frequent mistakes in the lyrics of the songs are abbreviations of words and word combinations, omission of parts of words, as well as improper coordination of sentence members.
