psycholing.языковой шокlanguage shock (Second language acquisition researcher John Schumann explores the concept of "language shock," a fear of appearing so mical or making a fool of oneself when attempting to communicate in a second language. The student's desire to avoid psychological injury, in combination with his or her social inhibitions and fear of criticism, may function to decrease his or her motivation to learn a second language and to master course content expressed in a second language. Alex_Odeychuk)
