The document discusses the difference between language acquisition and language learning. Language acquisition refers to naturally learning a language from interaction with native speakers, with a focus on meaningful communication rather than grammar. It is how one's native language is learned in childhood. Language learning is a more conscious process that occurs in educational settings, with grammar, vocabulary and rules taught in a controlled manner. It describes learning a second language, which is learned in addition to one's native language.
