In this article an attempt will be made to explain the nature of the non - native character of Italian L2 texts written by advanced Dutch university students by analyzing the various ways in which the nominal group is formed in these texts. It will be argued that the non -native character of the L2 nominal group is to be ascribed to an imbalance in the use of the possibilities offered by the target language, an imbalance that is the outcome of Ll-based choices.
