Best to learn a new language before age of 10 (4th May, 2018)

New research by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) shows that if people want to master their mother tongue in a new language, they should start learning that language before age 10. Researchers added that children between the ages of 17 and 18 are still good at grammar learning. People who want to learn new languages ​​after teens have bad news. Researchers say that this has gone through a "critical time" when language learning abilities begin to decline. Joshua Hartshaw researcher said: "As far as children are concerned, it is easy to become bilingual ... it is best to learn the language at that time, this is not something that can be compensated later.

This survey is based on an analysis of the results of a 10-minute online grammar test. More than 650,000 language learners of all ages participated in the test. Researchers measured grammatical abilities of people who began to learn at various stages of life. Professor Hartshorne focuses on grammar rules. This is most likely to confuse non-native speakers with a measure of their proficiency level. Josh Tenenbaum, a researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, suggests that people may be too busy to learn the language in later life. He said: "After 17 years or 18 years, you leave home, you work full time, or you become a professional college student, all of which may affect your language learning rate unknown".

Based on human grammar scores and their English learning information, researchers have developed a model to predict the fluency of language and the age optimal for starting learning. Their conclusion is that the ability to learn new languages ​​is at least grammatically strong and will not fall sharply until the age of 18. However, in order to become fully fluent, learning should begin before 10 years old. There are three main reasons why language learning ability declines at the age of 18. Social change, interference from the first language, and sustained brain development. At the age of 18, children usually graduate from high school and go to college full-time or continue to enter the labor market. Once they do it they may no longer have the time, opportunity or learning environment to learn the second language as they were young.
