AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Children acquire language through interaction-not only with their parents and other adults, but also with other children. All normal children who grow up in normal households, surrounded by conversation, will acquire the language that is being used around them.

Detailed explanation-2: -Learning two languages at the same time According to research, children who learn two languages simultaneously go through the same processes and progress at the same rate as children who learn only one language. They begin to start talking and say their first words or first sentences within the same time frame.

Detailed explanation-3: -Learning in the native language, especially during the first years of formal schooling, help children improve their cognitive skills in numeracy and problem-solving. Likewise, teachers may also teach more effectively in their native language.

Detailed explanation-4: -Pre-linguistic stage Also known as the pre-linguistic stage, the first stage of language development often occurs between zero and six months. Children in this phase don’t have developed language skills, so they communicate with sounds. They cry, make cooing sounds and utter nasal murmurs as their vocal tracts develop.
