Abstract: In this paper we present a novel way of understanding the experience of successful language acquisition and even life success. We hesitate to call our ideas and explanations “hypotheses”; at this stage they are mere “conjectures,” clearly not yet ready to undergo the scrutiny that respectable hypotheses need to experience. Our hope is that this discussion will lead to hypothesis-testing and real progress.
