Second language acquisition (SLA)1 is now an established discipline, represented in both graduate programmes bearing its name and in programmes in Applied Linguistics, TESOL and foreign language education graduate programs. It boasts journals and conferences specifically devoted to it and it figures conspicuously in conferences such as this one. While controversy exists regarding its exact boundaries, with some researchers (e.g. Doughty & Long 2003) arguing that it constitutes a branch of cognitive psychology and others (e.g. Firth & Wagner 1997, 2007) that it is primarily a social phenomenon, there is broad agreement about what the main areas of the discipline are (i.e. those associated with the description of second language (L2) learner language, whether narrowly of broadly defined, and the explanation of how it is acquired).
