Abstract
In an era marked by rapid technological progress and global dynamics, the Neo-Language Acquisition and Learning Theory challenges conventional language acquisition paradigms through its conceptualization of 'Grit: The Unyielding Will to Connect,' emphasizing determination, motivation, and adaptability as the primary drivers of language learning, transcending age-related constraints and critical periods. This theory also underscores 'Self-Preservation: Language as the Canvas of Reality,' as language plays a pivotal role in preserving and conveying our individual and collective experiences. Recent global events have underscored the theory's relevance, prompting a reevaluation of language education in response to changing circumstances. Moreover, 'Techno-Training: Language Acquisition and Learning in the Digital Age' is integral to the theory, as it recognizes the influence of technology on modern language education. Beyond traditional methods, these three reshape our fundamental understanding of said theory. Drawing from historical evidence, psychological principles, and contemporary applications, they supported the conceptualization of the theory itself. Overall, the Neo-Language Acquisition and Learning Theory revolutionizes language education, spotlighting the power of motivation, determination, and adaptability to navigate the evolving landscape of language learning and acquisition.
