When kids learn a language they know the context and hear the word, and have to learn the meaning: context + word => meaning. When speaking, the context is known, and they have to think of the word. They go like this: context + meaning => word. (1/2)

With traditional language learning we are trying to do a much more difficult thing. We try to learn both meaning and the different contexts in which a word can be used: word => contexts + meanings. (2/2)
