Detailed explanation-1: -Comprehensible input is language input that can be understood by listeners despite them not understanding all the words and structures in it. It is described as one level above that of the learners if it can only just be understood.

Detailed explanation-2: -Comprehensible input is simply an instructional shift when teachers provide input where students understand most, but not all, of the language.

Detailed explanation-3: -Comprehen-sible input is a theory coined by Krashenwhichsignify an input that is slightly above the understandable level of the students/language learner thus to push them beyond their level of understanding and acquire a sense of understood meaning (though they are yet able to explain it metalinguis-tically).

Detailed explanation-4: -Krashen says that people acquire language through comprehensible input in a low anxiety environment. Comprehensible input means exposure to compelling reading and listening texts that are above a learner’s current language ability.

Detailed explanation-5: -Comprehensible input can help students of any proficiency level: from beginner to advances students. For input to be comprehensible it must be in the form of meaningful language which students can understand with the help of embedded context, even though they don’t fully understand the meaning of each word.
