Option 1 : i & ii are true
Language is a symbolic, rule-governed system, shared by a group of people to express their thoughts and feelings. In a child, language development takes place through language acquisition and language learning.
Language acquisition:
- It refers to the subconscious process of learning a native or home language because of the innate capacity of the human brain.
- Language acquisition does not require any formal instruction. It is a natural process whereby children acquire language unconsciously by observing and repeating what they hear in the natural/informal setting.
- For example, a learner in a village in the state of Jharkhand knows her mother tongue and Hindi, the language of home, and her neighborhood.
Language learning:
- It refers to the result of deliberate and conscious effort for a better understanding of foundational skills of language learning. It takes place in a formal setting.
- It is effectively done by providing comprehensible inputs to make the learners actively involved in real communication. It refers to have a basic knowledge of grammatical rules and their use in communication.
- For example, a learner in a village in the state of Jharkhand learns English in school.
Hence, it could be concluded that i & ii are true in the context of the question.
