  • This case study sheds light on how human language acquire and learn languages.
    The researchers investigate the differences between language acquisition and
    language learning in a matter of nature and behaviorism. When a typical child
    reaches the age of language acquisition, they all naturally develop language, which
    is a phenomenon unique to humans. Children that have enough exposure to their
    first language, mother tongue, or immediate environment's language (L1)
    eventually become fluent in that language. Naturally in circumstances involving
    communication. Yet, acquiring a second or foreign language (L2) is a very distinct
    and difficult situation because it is done in an entirely artificial setting. This causes
    all the related issues that come with learning a second language. The findings of
    the research show that Language learning is second language acquisition is the
    process that child goes through in learning more than one language and Language
    acquisition is process where one learns language learning a native language (first
    language) or a second language.
