Kim, Jee-Hong. 2011. A Critical Review of Levelt's Model of Language Production. Korean Journal of Linguistics, 36-4, 887-901. The 1980s witnessed the emergence of several models of language production. Among those, Levelt’s (1989) was particularly comprehensive. Its revised version (Levelt, 1999) is composed of two modules, namely, the rhetorical/semantic/syntactic system and the phonological/phonetic system. This paper argues that the revised model needs to be further augmented to allow multiple processing of production to account for dynamic communication. It is suggested that a multiple layer could include decision procedure of meta-intention, choice of expression, immediate checking of audience reaction, and theme advancement strategies, all of which could be activated simultaneously during online production.
