Second Language Acquisition is similar to the process undergone by children when learning their first language. Through meaningful interaction with the target language, a stable order of acquisition is followed. Rather than learning by knowing the rules and following proper form, the meaning of the message you convey and the way you interact with the language is far more significant. Unlike conscious learning which does indeed rely on rules and error correction, second language acquisition relies on listening to and speaking in the target language without any significant stress on syntax.
