I'm planning to do a small scale study to investigate the common mistakes my students make, hence looking for previous studies on the same issue. I will appreciate if you share any related studies with me. Thank you in advance.
I'm not aware of any studies but I do know from personal experience that the word order mistakes my students make here in Spain are all based on them using Spanish or Catalan word order in an English sentence
Yes, Lizzie...that's what I also experience here in Turkey. Thanks for your answer.
I got these simply by googling efl word order studies:

They were all on the first page of the results. I'm pretty sure you will find more on subsequent pages.
Thanks Martin. One of them is about Turkish, the native language of our students in my institution. I appreciate the share.
