Аннотация

Annotation: In an increasingly interconnected world, the ability to
communicate in multiple languages is not only a practical skill but also a cognitive
endeavor with far-reaching implications. The process of acquiring a second language
goes beyond mere linguistic proficiency; it involves a complex interplay of cognitive
processes that reshape the way individuals perceive, interpret, and interact with the
world around them. So it is not merely a linguistic endeavor; it is a journey of self-
discovery and identity formation. Beyond the mechanics of grammar and vocabulary
lies a profound transformation of how individuals perceive themselves and relate to the
world around them. This article delves into the intricate relationship between second
language acquisition and identity, exploring how the process shapes, molds, and
enriches the very essence of who we are.
