Summary
Ever wondered why speaking your native language feels so effortless? When you express yourself, the right words just come naturally. This process is largely unconscious.

Have you ever thought about how easily you communicate in your native language? Words and phrases flow without much thought. This intuitive communication stems from an unconscious process.
Stephen Krashen, a linguist at the University of Southern California, developed the Input Hypothesis to explain this phenomenon. His "natural approach" to learning focuses on the language we take in?"what we read and hear.
Krashen emphasizes the role of "input," which refers to the sentences you understand and absorb. These are stored in the brain's language center, building your ability to communicate.
This theory explains how children acquire their native language. By listening to family and peers, a child gradually learns to form sentences, speaking fluently by age five.
For language learners, providing the brain with abundant, comprehensible input?"whether spoken or written?"is crucial for improvement.
Cognitive scientists advocate for watching movies as a natural way to enhance language skills. For instance, learning English through films exemplifies "learning by input."
SFK Media's ReadEnt Reading Movies harness this natural method with "Action Captions," an innovative tool that displays text of each spoken word on screen as it is being said.
According to Len Anthony Smith, CEO of SFK Media, "These movies immerse learners in language. They naturally improve pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, and comprehension swiftly and effortlessly."
ReadEnt's Reading Movies are offered as interactive DVD programs compatible with TVs, computers, video-game consoles, or portable DVD players. They feature classics like "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea," "Tales of Gulliver's Travels," and "The Trojan Horse." To enhance the learning experience, interactive quizzes and games are included, making it engaging for children from kindergarten through eighth grade.
