10:55 "In order for comprehensible input to work, the input has to be interesting. People have to pay attention to it."
This is such a good summary of what it is.
20:32 where FVR research starts
23:14 my favorite research is presented (the research that inspired me to read and eventually reading over 120 Japanese kids books).
I can't agree more
yes you are right
reading is the solution and the way for acquiring a second language.
I have done it as you said Dr Krashin
I have read more than 2000 hours
it's really helped me acquire the English language in one year and half
from 4.5 to 6 in IELTS .
I'll keep reading until getting 7
actually i enjoy what i read.I don't study the language I just read books that I interest in .
it's easy isn't it

Frank R. Pilot the power of reading
The audience seems predominantly female, but I could just be guessing that from one shot of the audience I just saw. If that is the case, I wonder why. I wonder if men are just not interested or think they aren't interested in this kind of stuff. Also, I LOVE Stephen Krashen!
Of course men are interested as well XD. My guess is that they are teachers and there are more percentage of female teachers compared to males.
How do I start reading if I don`t want? Will this forceful reading count?
Find something to read about a subject you like or have an interest in. It can be anything, interviews with a musician or artist in your target languages whom you're interested in, for example
@@vishnu2407 thank u for reply! Interesting suggestion)
By the way, do u believe we can improve or create any speaking skills via reading?
I personally think it is a matter of practice and general comunicative competence even in your L1
@@Denis-fg8hi Partly. Reading will increase one's vocabulary and improve syntax. However, speaking is more than that, such as pitch, tone, pace for example.
@@Denis-fg8hi steve Kaufman (another believer of the theory) has learned over 10 languages from just comprehensible input, he does not start speak but gets a ton of input, overtime you should be able to speak the language as a result of having tons of input (and by a ton of input I'm sure its more than 1000 or even more) feel free to correct me if I got something wrong but this is what I understand.
He has black belt? Who gave him?
