This study examined scope ambiguity interpretation in English double object and to-dative constructions by native English speakers and Korean EFL learners in Experiment 1. Native English speakers showed a significant difference in interpretation between sentence types, supporting a competition-based account. Korean EFL learners, however, preferred the wide-scope reading of the indefinite quantifiers a and two, irrespective of the sentence types. Experiment 2 investigated scope ambiguity resolution of the same sentence types in Korean by Korean participants of Experiment 1. As Experiment 1, the participants displayed the same result favoring wide scope interpretation of indefinite quantifiers. Based on these results, I supported competition-based accounts and proposed revising hierarchy of indefinite quantifier a suggested by Ioup(1975). The difference in scope ambiguity comprehension between Korean EFL learners and native English speakers was analyzed in terms of L1 transfer.
