SLA (Second Language Acquisition)


Second Language Acquisition (SLA) is the process by which individuals learn a language other than their native language. SLA involves developing proficiency in various language skills, including listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The process is influenced by factors such as age, motivation, exposure, and instructional methods. SLA research explores the cognitive, social, and environmental aspects of language learning, aiming to understand how learners acquire language and what teaching strategies are most effective. Insights from SLA research inform language education practices and help educators support learners' language development.
