The most likely areas of errors made by Polish learners of English. The most complicated and the longest process of language acquisition is the process of learning the first language (L1). Then, on its basis we learn any other language (L2) with more or less difficulties, depending on its similarity to our mother tongue.

Abstract- English is a language that is spoken by around 360-400 million people on this planet and understanding it is not at all easy.

It should be recognized as having its own underlying system which can be described in its own terms. As the system develops towards that of a target-like system, the learner contributes by actively forming rules, sometimes overgeneralizing them, and gradually adapting them.
