- acquisition — picking up language naturally (vs learning consciously)
- fluency — speaking smoothly, without long pauses
- proficiency — overall competence level

- output — language you produce (speaking, writing)
- fossilisation — when errors become permanent habits
- mother tongue — your first language from childhood
