ABSTRACT

Language is seen as a way of communicating meaning. The paper introduced the concept of language, noting that it covers a wide range of implications, such as body language, sign language, and animal language. It also gave an explanation of the concept of second language acquisition, characteristics of second language acquisition by preschoolers, cultural diversity, and learning and behavioral disabilities, which were used as the concept of second language to produce repetition. It was on this basis that the paper concluded that language is a system for communication using sounds or gestures that are put together in meaningful ways according to set rules. Through language, people can express their feelings, write poetry and novels, and even think. Language is essentially human, although possibly not limited to humans. One of the recommendations was that enhanced knowledge of research and critical reflection on one's teaching should be made to provide learners, including preschoolers, with the necessary learning techniques and skills to help build in them good learning culture of languages.
