This general review explores the importance of linguistic competence (LC) in developing communicative competence (CC) among English as a foreign language (EFL) learners with a Spanish language background. An area of interest to be addressed is explicit and meaningful instruction (EI) of grammar, phonetics, morphology, and spelling meaningfully; that is through tasks focused on meaning. Chomsky’s (1965) notion of LC, along with Hymes’ (1972) notion of CC will be dealt with to support the development of this general review (De Bona, & Machado, 2012). However, the LC proposed in the Canale and Swain (1980) model of CC (Salazar, 2015) is mainly considered from the perspective of what EFL learners need to know about language through EI of the aforementioned linguistic aspects in a meaningful way. This general review will be based considering research in which EFL learners have received explicit grammar instruction through periodic communicative activities. E-books and peer-reviewed articles related to research on LC development of the CC of EFL learners will be considered. Several topics will be discussed in order to support the development of linguistic competence in English language learners.
