Explanation

GitHub Copilot assists learners of new programming languages through two mechanisms. (A) GitHub Copilot Chat acts as an on-demand tutor - you can ask it to explain syntax, describe idiomatic patterns, or walk through common tasks in the new language, providing interactive support throughout the learning process. (D) Writing natural-language comments describing what you want to accomplish and letting Copilot generate the corresponding code is a highly effective technique: it shows learners how a concept maps to actual syntax in the target language. Option B is incorrect because '/understand' is not a real GitHub Copilot command. Option C describes a partially accurate capability but is truncated and less directly tied to language learning than A and D.
