Artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly transformed educational practices, particularly in language learning. Traditional language education often follows standardized teaching approaches that may not address the diverse needs, learning speeds, and preferences of individual learners. AI-driven technologies have introduced personalized learning systems capable of adapting instructional content, assessment, and feedback according to learner performance and behaviour. This study explores the role of AI in personalized language learning and examines how adaptive educational technologies improve learner engagement, motivation, and language proficiency. Using a qualitative review of recent literature and case studies from AI-based language learning platforms, the paper investigates the effectiveness of AI in vocabulary acquisition, grammar improvement, speaking practice, and learner autonomy. Findings suggest that AI-powered adaptive systems enhance language learning outcomes by providing immediate feedback, personalized recommendations, and continuous assessment. However, challenges such as privacy concerns, technological accessibility, and overdependence on automated systems remain significant. The study concludes that AI represents a transformative force in language education, offering innovative opportunities for adaptive and learner-centred education.
