Resumo

Grande parte da pesquisa em aquisição de terceiras línguas centrou-se em fatores como a distância entre línguas, a competência, o uso recente ou o status da segunda língua (L2) na eleição da língua origem (L1) desde o ponto de vista da influência interlinguística. Apresenta-se aqui uma análise de tais fatores, assim como da influência que tem a L1 (espanhol) na produção oral em L2 (inglês) e L3 (catalão). Analisa-se a transferência léxica e sintática na produção em catalão e inglês de dois falantes plurilíngues com conhecimento semelhante de línguas estrangeiras. Foram entrevistados duas vezes em um ambiente informal. Os resultados mostram que a L1 é a principal fonte de transferência, tanto na produção oral em L2 como em L3; mas sua influência diminui na medida em que se incrementa a competência na língua meta. A distância entre línguas tem também um papel importante na influência interlinguística, especialmente se a competência na língua de origem é boa e se houve um contato recente com ela. Os resultados sugerem, também, que enquanto a transferência sintática baseia-se exclusivamente na L1, a transferência léxica pode se basear na língua não nativa.
