    Durgaa Saralan
    First language acquisition occurs naturally as a child learns to communicate at home, acquiring the language through subconscious processes without conscious awareness of grammar rules. Second language acquisition focuses on language learned later in life, usually in a classroom setting, requiring conscious learning of grammatical rules and the ability to talk about language. While second language acquisition involves more cognitive skills and awareness of language rules, successfully acquiring a first language provides benefits to learning additional languages.
