Abstract
This phenomenological study was conducted to describe the context of acquisition of second language among the students. The seven participants were purposely selected to answer the interview questions. In terms of their lived experiences in the acquisition of second language, the majority of the participants experienced fun, tough, and challenging yet rewarding encounters. In terms of the challenges encountered; ‘English is a crazy language’ is one of the top problems shared by the participants. English learners had a tough time in identifying the rules since there are some exemptions to it. In terms of their coping mechanisms, generally, there were numerous coping mechanisms developed in order to address the challenges they encountered. This only substantiated that the participants aimed to vanquish the intimidating effects of these challenges deep into every essential aspect of their lives. This also confirmed that the participants’ perspective towards the problems which they encountered was openly noted and not afraid of addressing it with solutions they developed by themselves or with the assistance of other professionals.
