ABSTRACT

This paper explores the theme of spoken language production from first language speech production and Levelt's (1989) Speech Production Model. Then, second language production will be analyzed with second language acquisition and the spoken language constructs: Complexity, Accuracy, and Fluency (CAF). It is suggested that the CAF constructs can be references for education practitioners in their teaching practice.
