Monitor Hypothesis S. Krashen
The ability to use consciously learned language is severely limited.
Consciously learned language does not provide fluency and contributes little to communication.
Acquisition is responsible for ability to communicate. Consciously learned language provides a ‘monitor’ or
editor for previously acquired language. Accuracy is not a byproduct of better monitoring. Accuracy increases via acquisition. The ‘monitor’ should not impede communication and the
generation of new thought. Students need time to focus on form and to know the rule.

10 ORGANIZING PRINCIPLES FOR LANGUAGE ACQUISITION
1. Language is primarily self-selected, not imitated.
2. Language is acquired, not taught.3. Language is a problem-solving device. To
ignore this fact during instruction causes language to become the problem.
4. Renovation is a byproduct of ownership.5. A child will not exceed, in L2, the ability he or
she has in L1.

10 ORGANIZING PRINCIPLES FOR LANGUAGE ACQUISITION
6. Linguistic accuracy is a destination, not a point of departure.
7. Grammar and syntax minimize the potential for miscommunication.
8. Linguistic accuracy assures that the largest number of us shall have the best opportunity to understand one
another9. The conventions (rules) of a given language must not
impede the invention of that language. 10. People who communicate take risks. There is an intimate relationship between language acquisition and the
amount of risk-taking, vulnerability and intuition encouraged.
