“…The sample in the present study represents formal descriptions of the grammatical systems of the two languages conventionalized and systematized in their respective reference grammar. The Macedonian language reference grammars used in this study are by: Lunt (1952), Koneski (1967), Friedman (2001), and the Minova-Gjurkova (2000); and the English language ones are by: Zandvoort (1977), Palmer (1978), Mihajlović (2006), Crystal (1978), and Eckersley & Eckersley (1980. The language classification is based on McArthur's Typology (1998).…”

This qualitative paper contrasts the Macedonian and the English language grammatical systems, i.e., their morphological and syntactic features in order to determine those which cause frequent difficulties for the Macedonian EFL learners and speakers. The sample represents formal descriptions of some features of the ML and EL grammatical systems as conventionalized in their reference grammars respectively. The juxtaposition relies upon contrastive analysis. The CA results indicate types of differences between the grammatical systems of the ML and EL which cause two-way interference, i.e., language transfer across both languages -ML(L1) > EL(L2) > ML(L1). The results are valuable for modelling approaches towards enhancing Macedonian EFL communicative and translational skills.
