From Dual nature View of Language to Audiolingualism A Reappraisal of Memory Aspect of Language
The purpose of the paper is to re evaluate the memory aspect of language from the perspective of dual nature view of language and Audiolingualism, a teaching approach once popular in the western world. I will begin by reviewing the conceptual evidence of dual nature view of language that has accumulated in this area. After that, I expound the relationship between mimicry memorisation and Audiolingualism through examining Audiolingualism from a historical perspective and discussing how memorisation is reflected in Audiolingualism. Finally, I conclude that more research are called to investigate as to how the memory aspect of language can be reflected and pragmatically applied in language teaching program.
