Hello i am planning to buy a guitar but i have no idea on what type i should buy.

when i buy an acoustic-electric guitar, is it required to have amplifier?
and is there a difference in sound between an acoustic guitar and an acoustic-electric guitar without an amplifier?

I really don't have any idea about this.

Answer
the whole point of an acoustic electric is to play it with an amp to make it louder.
