[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous](cont) coming into your house, and by eavesdropping on you figures out how to use your language? Now that's something that I sill think is a scam -- those "babies" must be some kind of aliens coming to take over our world![/quote] and those babies, who can't even walk or go to the bathroom on their won, are capable of picking up ANY language and speaking it, when they learn how to speak, like a native. As they get older, this amazing ability diminishes. Weird perhaps it's proof of heaven![/quote] It takes a baby multiple years before they can fluently speak. If you embedded just about anyone into a culture that only spoke one language that person would learn to speak that language faster than a baby.[/quote] Actually, babies are picking up meanings and sounds before they can speak in whatever languages they hear, and when they do start to speak, they speak like a native, without the accent or syntax problems that adults have.[/quote] They speak like the people around them, this is nothing special. When your kids are teenagers they begin to pick up accents, syntax and vocabulary from their friends. Then when they come home and use those "clique" verbals their parents holler at them for not speaking properly. It has more to do with constant exposure and use than being young.[/quote] it's exposure AND being young -- the young brain is simply better at picking up languages. It's a known FACT and doesn't contradict any religious beliefs, so if you look into it, perhaps you will be more inclined to accept the information that's out there.[/quote] I'll agree to that. The advantage of a young mind is that it has not yet been clouded with other ideas, thoughts, and habits. It's the only reason why adults have trouble learning a new language. They get caught up trying to associate the new language with the one they already know. This is why if they are forced to hear and only use the new language they will quickly adapt and have a working vocabulary in less than a month. But typically they go on using their native language almost exclusively and rarely use the language they are trying to learn. Which makes learning the new language extremely difficult. It's also the reason why young who know two languages will forget one if they do not continue to use both.[/quote]
