Implication

Analysis demonstrates reading proficiency variations in adults with L1 Catalan/Spanish learning L2 Arabic, indicating writing systems impact literacy.

Key Points

Reading proficiency in Standard Arabic is significantly influenced by learners' L1 characteristics, emphasizing the role of diverse writing systems in literacy.
The investigation revealed that 18 A1 level learners with L1 Catalan/Spanish exhibited challenges linked to Arabic's morphological features and orthography.
Prior literacy experiences and attitudes indirectly shaped the L2 reading process, highlighting their connection to learners' self-perception of reading skills.
The study uncovers essential factors affecting literacy transitions, suggesting that previous experiences may bias perceptions of learning efficacy.
