years. In this effect‚ According to Larsen-Freeman & Long (1991) in (Yoon‚2002): this was a time when structural linguistics and behavioral psychology were rather dominant in the study of language learning. CA proponents came to advocate that L2 instructional materials could be prepared more efficiently by comparing two languages and‚ in the process‚ predict learners’ behaviors and difficulties(qtd. in Dina 2). Contrastive Analysis(CA) was developed by Charles Fries‚ and was more explained

QUESTION 1 Most of the research on input has developed from Stephen Krashen’s Input Hypothesis. According to the Hypothesis‚ for L2 acquisition to take place‚ the learner must be exposed to comprehensible input. In other words‚ Krashen answers the question about what mechanisms exist to allow learners to acquire a second language. He reaches a conclusion‚ stating that learners can achieve acquisition “by understanding messages‚ or by receiving comprehensible input.” Furthermore‚ the input must contain

INTRODUCTION Based on the discussion of the validity of Noam Chomsky’s perception of Universal Grammar (UG)‚ some past & current researches which maintain & contest Chomsky’s UG from different areas are represented. The essay focuses on: 1) Chomsky’s Universal Grammar in brief‚ in Second Language Acquisition (SLA) context; 2) Evidences supporting Chomsky’s UG - views offered by linguists such as Williams and White‚ etc‚ to provide arguments to support UG pertaining

It is proved by some experiments that brain areas recruited for L1 (primary language or the mother tongue) learning and processing are different from those recruited for L2 (second language acquired).
