1. Before I learn a fact, my brain does not contain that fact. After I learn something, my brain contains that fact.
I have learned that 2+2=4
means: "I know that 2+2=4"
2: When I study something, I learn as much about it as I can, but there is always something more to learn
"I am studying mathematics"
means: I have learned that 2+2=4, but I still don't understand arctan(cosh(d(5X!)/dx))

When I 'study' with Italki, I am reading and writing and taking lessons so that I can 'learn' a new language.
To study means to work at something so that you can learn (gain new information).
If you study but don't know anything new when you have finished, then you have not learned anything.
To study - to work at your books
To learn - to gain new information
Also, you can learn without studying. If I touch a dog and he bites me, I learn that he is dangerous, but I have not been studying.

When you are learning you are not necessarily studying, but when your are studying you are always learning. "Learn is about get new informations or something like this. And study is the action of try to learn something.
I tried, haha.

Hello!
I'm just going by feeling, but "learn" is when you receive information and are taught by someone else. "Study" is more independent and implies you use your own time to find information.
Both can essentially mean the same thing, but "study" can sound more active while "learn" emphasises a teacher being there (even if there isn't!).
All the best!
