Scientific research is undoubtedly the key to solving complex problems across disciplines. No scientific advancement can occur without rigorous research. Among the most critical fields today is the study of foreign or second language acquisition, which facilitates global communication. Understanding the processes of language learning and the appreciation of literature requires the dissemination of scholarly work by researchers worldwide.
