Against Comprehensible Input: The Input Hypothesis and the Development of Second-language Competence.

Peer reviewed

White, Lydia – Applied Linguistics, 1987

Discusses several objections to Krashen's Input Hypothesis which states that language acquisition is the learners' understanding of a language at a stage slightly higher than their current one because of their understanding of extralinguistic cues of the language. (Author/LMO)

Perspectives on Language Transfer.

Peer reviewed

Faerch, Claus; Kasper, Gabriele – Applied Linguistics, 1987

Defines language transfer as a psycholinguistic procedure by which second language learners activate prior knowledge in developing or using their interlanguage. A functional differentiation of language transfer is proposed, according to its activation in learning, reception, and production. (Author/LMO)
