Detailed explanation-1: -This hypothesis states that individuals tend to acquire grammatical structures of a second language following a natural order that is predictable.

Detailed explanation-2: -Krashen is most widely known for his “comprehensible input” hypothesis, which suggests that learners acquire language by taking in and understanding language that is “just beyond” their current level of competence.
Detailed explanation-3: -L1 is usually acquired in the process of growing up with the people who speak the same language. L2 refers to two things; first, the study of individuals or groups who are learning a language ensuing their L1 which they have learned as children and second, the process of learning that particular language.
Detailed explanation-4: -The way in which L1 seems to facilitate the output in L2 is to remove learning anxiety that often arises when students try to make L2 oral output. By making the input more familiar, the participants have greater confidence in their ability to comprehend and make output in L2.
