Abstract

Swain’s (1985) Comprehensible Output Hypothesis considers that input alone may not be enough for second/foreign language (L2) learners to acquire new language forms. The Hypothesis claims that producing an L2 will facilitate L2 learning due to the mental processes related with language production. Thus, learners will more likely notice discrepancies and gaps between linguistic aspects of their native language (L1) and those of their L2 when producing language than when only perceiving language.
