Gaming: A gateway to Second Language Vocabulary Acquisition: An Annotated Bibliography
Keywords:
Second Language, Vocabulary Acquisition, Annotated BibliographyAbstract
In today's day and age, acquisition of a second language is considered an essential in the journey of seeking education. The increasingly growing connections of the world leading to mass globalization through cross-cultural interactions has laid down the need for multilingualism. Hence, in the competitive global world, the demand for proficiency in multiple languages has risen and contributes massively to one's marketable skills. Additionally, multiple researchers prove the benefits of multilingualism beyond the general acquisition of a language, which includes improved cognitive development, enhanced problem-solving skills and better cultural perception and awareness, just to list a few. Hence, bubbling the need for the acquisition of a second language.
