Selinker, Larry – Studia Anglica Posnaniensia, 1972
Two questions, what is a contrastive grammar, and what is comparable across linguistic systems, are touched on.

Boulanger, C.; And Others – 1972
The contrast between written language and oral language did not really begin to attract attention until second language teaching defined as its goal the acquisition of a communicative tool rather than a literary tool. This focus on communication made necessary the distinction between language used for oral communication and language used for…

Gaies, Stephen J. – 1976
The language learner is activated by exposure to primary linguistic data in the target language, categorizes that data and deduces from it a system of rules or hypotheses. When the language acquisition process is successful, as is virtually always the case in first language acquisition, the learner's rule system corresponds to that of the speech…
