CORPUS LINGUISTIC ASSIGNMENT

RQ 1 : Identifiable characteristics of Language Acquisition ; Formation of rules

RQ 2 : How can Corpus be used to facilitate Second Language Acquisition

1) Research paper only covers a specific language.

2) Does not cover creoles and learners of multiple languages at the same time

3) The measure of Acquisition is blurred by the analysis. If Young speakers speak a primitive form of the Aqcuired language, lacking only in mental facility and lexicon, does that mean they have aqcuired yet are inept? What about inept older speakers with limited lexicon. How to measure lexicon
