Yes, I took notice of that. If people learn languages which are not their own, to be good at it, they must study it and learn to speak it the time they were still children, as children seem very good at adopting something than adults.

what children hear and say they can adopt it easily. my children when they were growing i only taught them to speak english. i am from the philippines and people here speaks english but that is not our first language. but they hear it on tv so eventually they got to speak tagalog as well. it was easy for them to remember for their minds are fresh and they dont worry about anything. thats the reason why they leanr faster than adults
