Q1. Young children have a genetic ability to learn language. They come into the world as eager learning 
machines, and language acquisition is a major aspect of this learning. How children actually learn language 
is not entirely clear, however. Most linguists believe that they do it primarily by listening to and trying to 
communicate with adult speakers. Initially, this means that they copy the way adults use words and 
grammar. 
Q2. Learning a second or third language is easier in early childhood than later. It is particularly important 
to learn correct pronunciation as young as possible. At any age, learning by constant contact with native 
speakers in their own society is the quickest and the most effective method. It is superior to taking foreign 
language classes because it forces you to concentrate on it all of the time.
Q3. Learning a second language can be affected by the patterns of the first language. There can be some 
blending of phonemes. For instance, most Americans who learn French in high school or college 
pronounce French words with a distinctive American accent. Grammar can also be affected. English 
speakers who learn both French and Spanish sometimes combine grammatical rules of both when speaking 
either of them. 
Q4. Until just a few years ago, language study was limited to the classroom or personal tutor, or home 
study by book. In the last few decades technology has given us a much needed audio option — first vinyl 
records, then cassettes and CDs. Now technology has given us a new format — the Internet. Options to 
learn a language by Internet are still limited but the potential is not.
