              3. INPUT AND INTERACTION
                1. Language input to the learner is absolutely necessary for either L1 or L2 learning to take place
                  1. Nature of input modifications
                    1. -Foreigner Talk -Baby talk (Ferguson, 1971) -modification of written input for L2 learners -"simplification" in oral input

When they are L2 learners, members of different social categories frequently experience different learning conditions, and different attitudes or perceptions from within both native and target language communities.
