Popular YouTuber Matt Brooks-Green interviewed me recently on some key concepts in acquiring a second language.

It’s a brief tour (23m) of acquisition versus learning and topics related to vocabulary development, aimed at the non-specialist. Matt does a great job editing the video (check out some of his other work on his channel as well) and asked some excellent questions.
