What's really happening in your brain when you learn a new language?

In Second Tongue, Griff King combines cutting-edge research with real-world experience to uncover the science behind language learning—and how to use it to your advantage. This is not just a guide for learners, but a blueprint for understanding how we acquire language, and why traditional methods often fall short.

From memory and motivation to immersion and identity, Second Tongue explores the psychological and neurological truths that shape your journey to fluency. Backed by strategy and rooted in science, this book is perfect for curious learners who want more than phrases—they want insight.

Because learning a language isn't just an art.

It's a science. And now you've got the manual.
