Learning typically requires conscious effort, study, and awareness of the learning process, while acquisition is more subconscious and occurs gradually through immersion or exposure. Language learning is the process of acquiring the ability to understand, communicate in, and use a new language, which can take place in various contexts and for different purposes. Language acquisition refers to how humans naturally gain their native language in childhood or additional languages, which is a remarkable cognitive ability that allows people to use language to communicate.
