Detailed explanation-1: -Learning a new language involves listening, speaking, reading, writing, sometimes even a new alphabet and writing format. If you focus exclusively on just one activity, the others fall behind.
Detailed explanation-2: -For example, if an English-speaking person tries to learn Spanish by taking Spanish classes in a local community college in their town, they are learning Spanish. If this person, instead, moves to Mexico, where Spanish is the language of daily life, then they are acquiring the Spanish language.
Detailed explanation-3: -Children acquire language through interaction-not only with their parents and other adults, but also with other children. All normal children who grow up in normal households, surrounded by conversation, will acquire the language that is being used around them.
