Abstract:
A noun clause is a dependent clause that works like a noun. It is one of the common and essential constructions in English syntax , on the one hand , and a problematic and difficult area for the Iraqi learners of English foreign language on the other.The study aims at : - 1 - investigating the ability of Iraqi EFL learners to identify and produce finite and nonfinite noun clauses by form and function and finding out area of difficulty in this respect.2 - suggesting remedial work for the alleviation of these difficulties. It is hypothesized that Iraqi EFL learners fail to master the recognition and production of NCs by form and function.The study covers both theoretical and practical aspects. The theoretical aspect deals with the survey of the topic. It begins with definition and classification of clauses in general ,and then, states in detail definition ,form, function ,types ,patterns and sequence of tenses in noun clauses.In order to fulfill the practical aspect ,i.e, to achieve the test aim and to verify the hypothesis ,50 subjects of the fourth year from Department of English ,College of Education ,University of Diyala are randomly selected to represent the study sample. An achievement test which covers both Recognition and Production levels has been constructed by the researcher. Then test is exposed to jury members to verify its validity.T - test ,Percentages, Alpha Cronbach formula and t - test of significance of the correlation coefficient are used through out the procedures and results analysis. The t - test for one sample has been used to find out whether there is any significant difference between the computed t - value and the tabulated one. The analysis of the results shows that the subjects have failed to identify and produce NCs by form and function on the whole Test.This indicates that the subjects are not able to identify noun clause from other types of subordinate clauses such as adverbial and adjectival clauses , and stating whether NC is finite or nonfinite. Furthermore they can not identify the function of NC and which part of the sentence is NC. In the light of the results ,relevant conclusions are drawn and a number of recommendations and remedial work for alleviation of these difficulties are put forward besides suggestions are made for further studies
