    Krashen's Input Hypothesis proposes that humans acquire language through comprehensible input, or messages that are understood and are just beyond one's current level of proficiency. According to the hypothesis, access to comprehensible input is necessary for successful language acquisition, and greater quantities of comprehensible input lead to better acquisition. The document identifies three potential sources of comprehensible input for second language acquisition: modified input, interactionally modified input, and modified output. Interactionally modified input and modified output in an interactional context seem to be more beneficial than modified input alone.

    Comprehensible Input is SLA

    Krashen's
    Input
    Hypothesis
    Comprehensible
    Input
    Humans acquire
    language in only one
    way - by
    understanding
    messages or by
    receiving
    comprehensible input
    (i+1 !ne step beyond
    the learner"s current
    language ability (i# to
    continue to progress
    to the ne$t level ( 1

    According to Long (1982)
    The main assumptions of the rashen!s input hypothesis
    are as follo"s#
    (1) access to comprehensible input is characteristic of all
    cases of successful language ac$uisition% in both first and
    second language ac$uisition
    (2) greater $uantities of comprehensible input seem to
    result in better or faster L2 ac$uisition
    (&) lac' of access to comprehensible input results in little
    or no ac$uisition

    Three potential sources to ma'e input
    comprehensible for SLA#
    1( )odified input
    The input that has been modified*simplified in some"a+
    before the learner sees or hears it
    2( Interactionall+ )odified Input
    In "hich a ,S interacts "ith an ,,S% "here both
    parties modif+ and restructure the interaction to arri-e at
    mutual understanding
    &( )odified .utput
    /here a learner modifies his*her output to ma'e it
    more target0li'e*to ma'e it more comprehensible to the
    interlocutor

    Interactionall+ )odified Input
    and )odified .utput in an
    interactional conte1t seem to be
    more beneficial than )odified
    Input in terms of raising
    comprehensibilit+
