Summary:

First presented at the 2009 Georgetown University Roundtable on Language and Linguistics, these papers focus on implicit and explicit learning of second languages. Second language acquisition (SLA) is a curious phenomena in that it requires focus on nouns, verbs, predicates, pluralism and a variety of other concepts, yet a childhood speaker undergoing first language acquisition is probably unable to explain any of these. Edited by Sanz and Leow, both in Spanish applied linguistics at Georgetown University, submitted manuscripts went through a refereeing process with detailed comments and suggestions.
