This book addresses the L2 acquisition of the prodrop parameter as one of the oftcited parameters in Chomskys Principles and Parameters (P&P) Theory. Studies in the literature claim that triggering one of the properties of the prodrop parameter leads to the acquisition of the other properties which in turn results in resetting the parameter. The book explores whether focusing on one of the properties of the prodrop parameter through inputting different types of positive/negative evidence could trigger the L2 acquisition of (the other properties of) the parameter. It offers a useful review of issues such as L2 learners access to UG in resetting the prodrop parameter, markedness and the prodrop parameter, the type of evidence needed to reset the prodrop parameter, resetting the prodrop parameter, and the clustered properties of the prodrop parameter. Employing an empirical approach, the book challenges the resettability of the prodrop parameter and reports on the theoretical, empirical, and pedagogical implications of the findings. The intended readership of the book is postgraduate students, instructors, and researchers involved in second language acquisition research.
