چکیده:
In this study, phonological, morphological, and orthographical spelling difficulties
were identified to examine the correlation between spelling difficulties and the time
taken to memorize the spelling of words (time of memorization) among Iranian EFL
students in Malaysia. The participants were 41 Iranian EFL students (20 male and 21
female) who were selected purposefully from an Iranian secondary school in Kuala
Lumpur Malaysia. A pre-test and post-test design adapting Tabrizi, Tabrizi, and
Tabrizi (2013) approach was used. Forty words from the second-year English
textbook of Iranian EFL students were selected for use in both pre-test and post-test.
After the identification of the most frequent type of spelling errors, a significant
negative correlation was found between time of memorization and English spelling
errors (r = - 0.765), indicating that when the time of response was short, English
spelling errors increased. The findings may contribute to identification,
classification, and treatment of spelling, and reducing spelling difficulties among
EFL learners to mitigate spelling difficulties among young learners, particularly
among Iranian EFL students.
