Abstract: Learning a foreign language offers numerous cognitive, professional, and cultural benefits while also presenting certain challenges. Acquiring a new language enhances cognitive abilities, improves memory, and boosts problem-solving skills. It also increases career opportunities, facilitates cross-cultural communication, and enriches personal experiences. However, language learners often face difficulties such as complex grammar rules, pronunciation barriers, and vocabulary retention.
