Abstract
The issue of consciousness in its different forms has raised many controversies among scholars, both in definition and its role in learning, especially second/foreign language learning. In this article, an attempt has been made to have a short review of the terms ‘Unconscious’ Vs. ‘Subconscious’ both from scholarly and non-scholarly points of view and get the scholars’ idea about the terms together with a review of the role of these two terms in second/foreign language learning and the difference each would make in the outcome.
Keywords
