Stephen Krashen's theory of second language acquisition.

He points out that language acquisition does not require tedious processes in
extensive use of grammatical rules. It indicates that the best methods are
those that provide "input Understandable" in low anxiety, which is recognized
as having a communicative and comprehensible input, and not to force the
correction of production.

Stephen Krashen is an expert in the field of linguistics, specializing in theories


of language acquisition and development. The handles in his theory of second
language acquisition consists of 5 main hypothesis.
The hypothesis of the acquisition and learning.
The hypothesis of the monitor.
The natural order hypothesis
The hypothesis input
The affective filter hypothesis.

The hypothesis of the acquisition according to Krashen and learning are two
separate systems, the acquired system is a subconscious process is performed
with natural interaction with the target language, comparing how children
acquire their first language. The learning system is a conscious system in which
a more formal instruction example is the correct use of grammar.
The monitor hypothesis talks about when acting in planning, editing and
function is the complement of the acquisition system is the indicator of the
expression, the learning system plays the role of editor, there comes the main
screen monitor which It handles polish you acquire language naturally is the
psychological profile of the person helps determine the group you belong to.
The hypothesis of natural order indicated therein that learning is gradually
growing as you go you acquire more knowledge so you master the language
there is no curriculum.
Krashen's input hypothesis describes this hypothesis as the learning method
which handles only the purchasing method have shown that students must
meet with people of the same level of knowledge as acquisition is gradual. At
the same time it indicates that natural communication is the key input for the
design.
The hypothesis of affective filter is an affective variable, is one of the easiest
parts in the second language this is motivation, self-confidence and anxiety,
students with high motivation and confidence, good image is in better

condition, second language acquisition but if you have low self-esteem and
anxiety raises the affective filter and can reach a blockade.
5 linguistic hypothesis Krashen are related to the acquisition of language is an
essential part of learning a second language, they indicated that the student
needs to be with little anxiety and provide an environment which is motivating
and self-esteem rises this all leads in a natural process which must be
interacting according to their age and knowledge of the second language,
learning is as polished and grammarians and voice systems in this depends on
the teacher for easy absorption are improved of these rules by applying a
purchasing approach to do something tedious and students learn naturally.
This article supports to know that for better management of the second
language is necessary to apply a purchasing process motivate students to take
an interest in the subject and their interaction is with people of the same level
as their high level of knowledge is then performed learning grammar and polish
the voice.
