1. ACQUISITION
Subconscious Process
Lots of exposure
Opportunities to use the language
Language Acquisition AGE
Seems to be an important factor.
Children often acquire
(forget) language easily.
Developmental stages / exposure.
Teenagers / adults DO NOT seem to
acquire so "automatically" but they may
be more efficient learners.
Different developmental
stages / exposure.
At least one language is
acquired (some children acquire
more than one language).
LEARNING
Conscious Process
E. g
Whe we study the "rules",
structures of the language
(verb tenses, vocabulary)
Language learning
Students all over the world are
generally taught the language.
They learn language (grammar,
vocabulary functions)
Is it the right form?
