Abstract :This study aims to analyze the orthographic errors in English abstracts written by Turkish authors. As foreign language learners, Turkish authors write the abstracts of their articles in English. The majority of journals make writing English abstracts obligatory, even for Turkish articles, and authors’ academic writing competence is demonstrated through these abstracts. Half of the authors in this study are female, and half are male. This study’s findings are partly based on a master’s thesis, according to which foreign language users make different types of errors in their academic writing. The current study only evaluates the orthographic errors, which include spelling errors, consonant and vowel combination errors, and the misuse of articles and prepositions.
Keywords : Abstract, academic writing, error analysis, foreign language, orthographic errors
