Yes, language is learned in those ways.

A learned behavior in not instinctive but must be taught or acquired through learning.
According to the social learning theory, behaviours are learned through different means, one of them being observation of others. This is sometimes called vicarious reinforcement. A reinforcement goal is to increase the probability of apparition of a behavior. Its contrary, punishement, aims at decreasing the probability of apparition of a behavior. As such, vicarious punishement would refer to the decrease of the probability of apparition of a behavior due to having observed this behavior leading to negative consequences in another person. For example, a child who sees another child being punished for stealing a crayon from a peer will be less likely to do the same.

Generally there would have to be some kind of reward or incentive for training to result in behavior changes. There are countless possible rewards or incentives depending on the behavior and the species of the critter being trained. Some people might be motivated by salary, or by the outward benefits of exercising or dieting. Animals would be rewarded with food if used correctly. The above situations deal with positive reinforcement. Negative reinforcement can also be effective for training. Negative reinforcement is NOT, I repeat NOT punishment. Any reinforcer is a thing that makes a behavior MORE likely to happen; punishment does not do that. A rat in a lever box may experience a slight but definitely unpleasant electric current running through the floor of the box. When the rat performs the target behavior, the shock is turned off. THAT is negative reinforcement.

There are different theories of how language is learned. One is the reinforcement model. This explains language development is the result of learning through the pairing of stimulus and response in the presence of appropriate reinforcement. Then, there is the social learning theory. This theory states that children learn language by listening, observing, and imitating models. The interactions between people teach the child. A new theory about learning language as a second language states that if a child is speaking in the first language ( L1) to learn a second language (L2) he or she must be fully versed in the first language. The L1 acts as a foundation for the learning of the L2. Without this the learning of the L2 is much harder.
To answer briefly and non-technically, Behaviorism discounts the validity of seeking answers to the question of language acquistion through a "psychological" approach. That is, language is a learned behavior conditioned through stimulus-response-reinforcement processes. Imitation plays a large role in the Behaviorists explanation of how humans learn a language. Psycholinguistics, greatly informed by Noam Chomsky, argues the opposite. That is, language acquisition is an innate ability. Psycholinguistics, among other things, also investigates the cognitive and neurological processing of language in the human brain. To make a simplified analogy: language, according to Behaviorists, comes from the outside in. "Mentalists" argue that language goes from the inside out.
A response needs to be learned through partial continuance so that the condition is aquired.
he agree with Chomsky about children inventing new sentences

Acquired language refers to the ability to speak and understand a language that is learned through exposure and immersion, typically in a natural environment, rather than through formal instruction. It is the language that is learned and developed naturally, like a native language, as opposed to a language that is learned through explicit teaching.
Reinforcement theory is based on the relationship between behavior and its consequences. In the workplace, reinforcement can be applied to change or modify on-the-job behavior through incentives and rewards.
implicit grammar is learned naturally without effort as toddlers through conversation and exposure to the language. explicit grammar is learned in the classroom when someone makes a conscious effort to learn a language.

Italian can be learned by visits to the Italian peninsula and the Italian islands. It can be learned by travel to countries that have Italian as an official language and Italian among their successful immigrant communities. For example, Italian is one of the official languages of Switzerland, San Marino, and Malta. It can be learned by study at immersion schools; in colleges and universities; and through exchange programs and online and correspondence courses. It can be learned by private lessons with a tutor. It can be learned by listening to such Italian language audio visual materials as discs, films, and videos. It can be learned by getting to know and socializing with Italian language speakers. And it can be learned by finding work at an Italian business.
