"Socialisation" Natural Recordings by Native Speakers
The process of learning and developing the skills and behaviors that are necessary for effective interaction and participation in a society, including learning social norms, values, and language.
It refers to the way in which an individual learns to navigate social situations, understand social cues, and interact with others in a way that is acceptable to their community.
Socialization can take place through various means, such as family, education, media, and cultural experiences. It is a continuous process that shapes an individual's identity, attitudes, and behaviors over their lifetime.
Socialization can be contrasted with sociology, which studies the structure and functions of societies.
