24. Language learning vs. language acquisition
• Language learning is a life long process
Language acquisition
• Acquiring a language through a
subconscious process during which
we are unaware of grammatical rules
• The natural way of acquiring mother
tongue/native language
• Requires a source of natural
communication
• Does not require extensive use of
conscious grammatical rules and
tedious drills
Language learning
• Direct instructional based conscious
process of learning a new language
• Conscious knowledge of the new
language and learners can talk about
that knowledge
• form is of greater importance than
communication
• objective is for the student to
understand the structure and rules
of the language through the
application of intellect and logical
deductive reasoning
