Yes, second language acquisition is fundamentally different from first language acquisition. In first language acquisition, children acquire language naturally and effortlessly through exposure and interaction with their environment. In second language acquisition, however, learners are consciously and intentionally acquiring a new language, often in an instructional setting, which involves different cognitive processes and strategies.

I think it is when you learn a second language. Like, if you speak English as your first language, then learn to speak Spanish fluently, you acquired Spanish as your second language.

Neurolinguistics focuses on how the brain processes language and how language affects the brain. Psycholinguistics studies the mental processes involved in language comprehension, production, and acquisition. While neurolinguistics investigates the neural basis of language, psycholinguistics examines the cognitive mechanisms underlying language use.

Understanding how we most naturally learn language (how we learned our first language) helps understand the nature of language learning. The more you can mimic this process in teaching a second language, the better.It also helps the teacher understand ways learning a second language is unlike learning one's first.

The three main theories of first language acquisition are behaviorism, nativism, and interactionism. Behaviorism suggests that language is learned through imitation and reinforcement. Nativism proposes that humans are biologically predisposed to acquire language. Interactionism emphasizes the role of social interaction and cognitive processes in language development.
