Based on the use of potentials of human analogue thinking and cognitive effects as an indispensable component of the cognitive activity, the article considers atypically located in the frame structure and suggestively loaded rational and emotional motivators for learning a foreign language. The article focuses on sensory-somatic enhancers of the new information reception. It is shown that stimulation of the analogue language learning is mostly successfully carried out with suggestive or emotional motivation, as well as through visual, audio, kinesthetic channels alongside with the verbal one during games. It is proved that such games were used in the history of human ontogenesis. Game resources of virtual reality are considered as new stimulating suggestions, since a game is a way to detach from the profane in favor of the sacred information space. The ways of optimization of virtual foreign language learning by means of sensory-somatic enhancers are described.
