Allman, B. (2019). Principles of Language Acquisition. EdTech Books.

According to Allman, B. A student at Brigham Young University majoring in psychology

and technology. She obtained her M.A. And both BS from Brigham Young University with a BA

in TESOL/Linguistics with a minor in Statistics and a minor in Human Development and

Business Administration. In his book on language acquisition, she stated firsr what a language

community is. She defines a linguistic community as a collection of individuals who adhere to

the same norms for speaking and understanding at least one of her various languages or dialects.

Her book describes many other benefits of language learning, such as improved academic

performance, improved cognitive development, and improved attitudes towards different

languages and cultures. Simply put, learning a second language is necessary for students to

succeed in today's global economy.

Krashen, S. D. (1981). Principles and Practice in Second Language Acquisition. English

Language Teaching series. London: Prentice-Hall International (UK) Ltd.

Krashen's book, Principles and Practice in Second Language Acquisition, are divided

into 5 parts. The first section deals with the relationship between theory and practice and gives

recommendations for optimizing language teaching. Using applied linguistic research followed

by second language acquisition, he offers three approaches to using concepts and experience to

enhance intuition. In the second section, he describes his theory of second language acquisition,

stating that an adult can acquire a language in two different ways. In addition, he talks about the

Natural Order Hypothesis, which holds that regardless of a speaker's native tongue, some

grammatical structures tend to be learned early and others late. This does not imply, however,

that grammar should be taught in the sequence of acquisition as will be covered later in the book.

The language that we have consciously learned acts as an editor in circumstances where the

learner has enough time to edit, is focused on form, and is aware of the rule, such as on grammar

tests in a language classroom or when carefully writing a composition, according to a number of

other hypotheses that he brought up. He also holds the opinion that when language learners

attempt to generate language beyond what they have previously learned, they frequently fall back

on the rules of their first language, which enables them to communicate but prevents them from

making any genuine progress in the second language. In giving a conservative view of language

acquisition theory and its applications, Krashen demonstrates his in-depth expertise by making

an effort to be compatible with all available empirical evidence. It is consistent with the manner

that many people have learned second languages quite successfully throughout history,

numbering in the thousands.

Google Books. Retrieved September 16, 2022.

O’Malley and Chamot's goal in this book are to build a good foundation when the

students or people apply learning strategy to theory, research, and practice in second language

acquisition. This book is containing a preface, eight chapters, a 5-page glossary, a 14-page

bibliography, and authors and topics. The two authors suggest that what we need in the field of

literature is large-scale empirical statistical studies that help to address what is the effective

learning strategies and learner training approaches. This book is very important for someone who

is teaching already since this helps them to determine what approach they must do for their

students.

Lydia White, author of Second Language Acquisition and Universal Grammar, received a

BA in Morality and Psychology from Cambridge University in 1969 and a PhD in Linguistics

from McGill University in 1980. She has also authored multiple articles in journals such as

Language Learning, Studies in Second Language Acquisition, Second Language Research, and

Language Acquisition, as well as several major publications in the field. Editing the special

edition, she is very trustworthy. According to her book, Universal Grammar rules and guidelines

impose limits on second language acquisition. Given these limitations, this book describes and

describes the underlying linguistic competencies of second language learners. Theories about the

function of universal grammar and the extent of native language influence are explored, with

particular attention to the nature of interlinguistic grammar at various stages of development

from early to final perfection. Throughout the book, the statement that universal grammar does

not matter is contrasted with the claim that second-language grammar is constrained by universal

principles. provide empirical data for This textbook is a must-have for anyone studying the

linguistics of second language acquisition.
