Language Learning Plasticity

Language Learning Plasticity is a neurocognitive framework that specifies the capacity of neural circuits to reorganize and adapt in response to linguistic input during the acquisition and mastery of a first or second language, distinguishing it from other forms of learning-related plasticity by its focus on the acquisition, representation, and processing of language-specific knowledge.
