Meer over het boek

Focusing on language acquisition, this paper explores the influence of external factors and the internal acquisition process. It emphasizes the observable nature of external factors compared to the more abstract cognitive processes occurring in learners' minds. While acknowledging advancements in neurology that shed light on brain functions related to language learning, the author refrains from delving deeply into neurological details due to limited expertise. The analysis aims to provide a foundational understanding of these key parameters in language acquisition.
