Abstract:

This Element explores the roles of explicit and implicit learning in second
language acquisition. The authors lay out some key issues that they take to
underlie the debate on the extent to which second language acquisition
involves explicit learning, implicit learning, or both. They also discuss what
they take to be an oversight in the field: namely, the lack of clear
definitions of key constructs. Taking a generative perspective on the nature
of language, while addressing alternative approaches at key points, they
refocus the discussion of explicit and implicit learning by first asking what
must be learned (i.e., what is this mental representation we call “language”
that all functioning humans possess?) The discussion and research reviewed
leads to the conclusion that second language acquisition is largely if not
exclusively implicit in nature and that explicit learning plays a secondary
role in how learners grapple with meaning.
