This experimental study is concerned with learning problems in the L2 acquisition of the English causatives including non-causative / causative alternation (i.e., The window broke / The thief broke the window) where their L2 acquisition lies at the semantics-syntax interface for the mapping of lexico-semantic structure onto lexico-syntactic structure. Various analyses concerning the possible cause of the causative errors are proposed, particularly in conjunction with BRR (Broad Range Rules) / NRR (Narrow Range Rules) and L2 learners' passivization strategy to avoid the non-canonical structure. Based on the major findings of the experimental study, certain developmental patterns are also observed in relation to the acquisition of English causatives.
