The concept is very simple really. Linguistic competence is what you actually know about a language, and linguistic performance is how you actually use it. So if you make grammatical mistakes, but you know they are mistakes, then your performance does not match your competence. But if you don't know they are mistakes, then your competence matches your performance, and you are probably not native.
For example, in looking at the unanswered wiki questions close to this one:
How does pneumonia fit into Maslow theory?
If the questioner just made a type and knows that a native English speaker would say:
How does pneumonia fit into Maslow's theory
then his or her performance does not reflect his/her competence. If the questioner doesn't know that this is a grammatical error, then they lack linguistic competence in English.
We ca say that linguistic competence deals with the language structure, e.g. grammar, syntax ... etc. Whereas communicative competence is the knowledge of communication. It depends on linguistic cometence. The later focus on fluency rather than accuracy. Best Wishes Nawraa. From: Sultanate of Oman
Studying competence and performance helps us understand the relationship between what individuals know (competence) and what they actually do (performance) in various situations. This understanding can lead to improved training programs, increased efficiency in work settings, and better outcomes for individuals and organizations. By examining both competence and performance, we can identify gaps and develop strategies to bridge them.
In the study of syntax, competence refers to an individual's underlying knowledge of a language's grammar system, while performance refers to how this knowledge is applied in real-time language production and comprehension. Competence involves understanding rules and structures, while performance involves actually using these rules during language use.
One linguistic difference between English and Spanish is their word order. While English follows a subject-verb-object order (e.g., "I eat an apple"), Spanish typically follows a subject-object-verb order (e.g., "Yo como una manzana").
The pre-linguistic stage involves non-verbal communication through gestures, vocalizations, and facial expressions before the use of words. The linguistic stage begins when children start using words to communicate and understand language structure and grammar.
There is no difference at all in meaning, however "competence" is the most often used, as many are unfamiliar with the noun "competency" and sometimes consider it an incorrect form of the word.

Competence is what you are able to do. Performance is what you actually do.

no difference. just the linguistic difference
Chomsky separates competence and performance; he describes 'competence' as an idealized capacity that is located as a psychological or mental property or function and 'performance' as the production of actual utterances. In short, competence involves "knowing" the language and performance involves "doing" something with the language. The difficulty with this construct is that it is very difficult to assess competence without assessing performance.

Competence is the ability to do something successfully or efficiently. Intelligence is the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills.
In the study of syntax, competence refers to an individual's underlying knowledge of a language's grammar system, while performance refers to how this knowledge is applied in real-time language production and comprehension. Competence involves understanding rules and structures, while performance involves actually using these rules during language use.
Competence would be a ratio, Capacity is max amount, volume, etc..
Capability is the ability to perform actions. Competence is the ability to perform a specific task, action or function successfully. So if you use your capability with success it becomes your competence. ;-)
Competencies are the KSA that distinguish superior performers from average performers.Competence is the ability to meet the basic requirementsto perform a job or task.eg: you talk about the level of competence that a person has at a task.
