Joshua Lagonoy submitted an analysis comparing language learning and language acquisition for his language course instructed by Ms. Paula Andrea Borja on December 18, 2020. Language learning is an active process that requires conscious effort, study, and guidance over a lengthy period, while language acquisition is a passive and instinctive process that occurs naturally as children develop cognitively without formal instruction. The key differences are that language learning is a personal choice that depends on motivation and discipline, while language acquisition is a rapid, instinct-driven process in early childhood not dependent on intelligence.
