Переведите, , этот текст can my new baby learn two or more languages at home? similar questions: can my toddler learn a second language at home before starting school? my spouse speaks language x and i speak y, can we teach our children both languages? my infant is a year old and has not learned to talk. why not? will i confuse my child if i mix languages? yes. it is possible to teach infant two or even three languages, and four is not unheard of. in europe, a great many toddlers learn four languages with little or no difficulty. the main requirements for this learning are: the parents speak only their mother – tongue to the child; the child has some reason to learn the languages (motivation); and there is reinforcement of some kind for these languages, preferably outside the home. if the language of the environment is a third language, then the child will easily learn the third language once they start playing with neighborhood children. there appears to be a `window` of learning language that `opens` at about the age of ten months. infants can much earlier, of course, and there is some evidence that they can even in the womb. it is clear that they will begin to imitate the `noises` they hear, and when there is a reaction from their caregivers, they begin to associate meanings with the sounds. over the next two years, infants acquire language at an astonishing rate. by the age of there, they have acquired basic syntax. (sentence structure), basic grammar (the `rules` of the language), and a large vocabulary of basic words necessary to their physical and emotional survival. their motivation to talk with their caregivers is high: asking for something usually results in being given the thing they need. similarly, when the infant begins to play outside, with other children, then the motivation to talk to these children is high, and the infant will try to learn the language of play. later on, at school, the language of the school will be important, too. the important thing to remember is that each child is an individual, and that each child will learn when he\she is ready to learn. if you think your child is `late` learning to talk, be sure you have ruled out all possible physical causes, including possible deafness, and then just wait. especially if there is more than one language in the baby`s home environment, then the baby will be learning first to process and separate the different languages, before talking begins. this `separating` the languages process` is why it is important that each parent speaks only their mother – tongue to the baby. they can speak a third language among themselves if they want the baby to hear and become familiar with that language as well, but it is important that the baby hears native – speaker sounds if you want the baby to make native – speaker sounds. there is considerable debate among linguists as when the `language learning window` closes, if it closes at all. however, there does seem to be an `optimal` age for language learning, when the child`s mind is still open and flexible, and not cluttered with all sorts of other learning, not to mention the society`s views on which languages are `prestige` languages, and which ones are regarded by the society as of little or no importance. the latter affects motivation: children will be admired for speaking a `prestige` language, and teased and bullied for speaking a `non- prestige` language. when the mind is being taught many other things than language, there is less ` processing space` left for language learning. at the moment, the `optimal` time for learning a second language appears to be `at the same time as the first language`, i. e. in the home beginning at birth to three years (providing the parents speak these two language as their mother tongue). the next best time for learning a second, third, and even a fourth language, appears to be between the ages of two to seven years. a third period for learning a second language is from about ten to thirteen years of age, this is in cases when the second language is not the language of either the parents or the environment. this is the reason behind the push to introduce `foreign` language learning into the curriculum of elementary schools, in the grade when the child is about ten – eleven years old.
