The chapters in Part 2 Alene Moyer (Chapter 8) addresses one of the questions posed earlier: how much input is needed? She looks at second language learners of German to explore new understandings of the significance of input for long-term attainment. Taking a closer look at adults in a target-language immersion setting, she discusses her study of learners from various first language backgrounds to investigate in detail how they go about obtaining input. She describes how use of complex statistical instrumentation contributes to a complete picture of the role of the individual in obtaining input and she emphasises why input matters as much as age in the long run in terms of phonological attainment.
