Summary/Abstract: The text discusses the differences between collocutors in the same society deriving from the way they mastered the language – by acquisition or learning. Since Croatian society is an example of a small linguistic environment rather unaware of all the difficulties of multilingualism, the main characteristics of acquisition versus learning are presented. For the benefit of a healthy linguistic environment it is proposed that this information be the foundation for mutual communication with non-native speakers.
