Abstract
Language is seen as a means of communicating ideas and an excellent tool for thinking. Although
languages such as Sinhala, Tamil, and English are spoken in Sri Lanka, Sinhala is the majority
people's language and the official language. According to that, students face numerous challenges
when learning Sinhala as a second language. The purpose of this research is to identify these
challenges and present solutions to them. This research is based on quantitative and qualitative
research methods using the first and second data sources. The questionnaire provided primary data,
while previous research, books, and the internet provided secondary data. Google Form and Excel are
used for analysis. The survey has found that students face difficulties in speaking, writing and
reading the Sinhala language and has presented some suggestions for them.
