 "A foreign
language is
a language that
is not an official
language of,
nor typically spoken in, a specific country. Native
speakers from
that country usually need to acquire it through conscious learning,
such as through language lessons at school, self-teaching,
or attending language courses. A foreign language might be learned
as a second
language;
however, there is a distinction between the two terms. A second
language refers to a language that plays a significant role in the
region where the speaker lives[,
whether for communication, education, business, or governance.
Consequently, a second language is not necessarily a foreign
language." Source
