Abstract

In the process of second language learning, learners will inevitably encounter various situations of ambiguity, and the tolerance of ambiguity will directly affect the effectiveness of language learning. At present, tolerance of ambiguity has become an important index to evaluate foreign language learning and a key issue in the field of second language acquisition. In view of this, this paper examines the relevant variables that affect the tolerance of ambiguity, and then reveals that the tolerance of ambiguity is not a constant variable, but in a relatively dynamic development process. Finally, the paper points out that second language learners should adjust their tolerance of ambiguity appropriately and control the balance between quantity and quality of second language acquisition in order to achieve the best learning effect. At the same time, in the practice of second language teaching, teachers should also give full consideration to the balance of ambiguity tolerance, and effectively guide students to correctly treat and moderately tolerate ambiguity in learning.
