    This source talks about different experiments done on toddlers who were bilingual and not. The underlying findings: - Being bilingual doesn't confuse children, they are able to understand that the languages are separate. - Being bilingual actually has longterm effects (especially with cognitive development).

    Psychologist Russell Hurlburt's research reveals that our inner experiences encompass more than just verbal thoughts. It includes images, emotions, sensations, and unsymbolized thinking. Despite ongoing questions and challenges in researching inner experiences, developing awareness of one's thoughts can have personal benefits.

    Slag is created and mainly used in a small group of people and it can develop a bond. Slang can be created from clipping(shortening a word), blending(combining words), and coinage(giving a word a new meaning). Usually it takes 30+ years for slang words to be added to the dictionary in 1950s, now it takes less than 10 years.

  • In most cases, if a person is not exposed to a language during the critical period, he or she will never be able to speak the language as well as someone who learned language normally.
  • Although the person may be able to learn many vocabulary words, his or her syntax will probably never reach a normal level.
  • Children who have brain damage are often able to regain their language abilities with practice. Adults, however, who suffer damage to language areas are rarely able to achieve their previous language proficiency.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • This observation further supports the concept that there might be a difference between learning language in childhood and adulthood.
  • Surgeons need to know which brain areas are involved in language comprehension and production, so that they will not disturb these valuable centers during operations on the brain.
  • Research suggests that learning second (or third) languages is easier for young children, and some evidence indicates certain brain areas that might be involved in this learning. Several studies have related second language learning to Broca's and Wernicke's areas.
  • Many studies suggest that the age at which a second language is learned may determine whether brain areas used for processing each language are overlapping or different. Early bilinguals seem more likely to use overlapping brain areas and late bilinguals seem more likely to use different areas for each language.
  • Although it is generally believed that a critical period exists for a first language, it is not known if there is a similar critical period for a second language.
  • certainly be important during neurosurgery.

    This site is very insightful as to the differences in language development in the brain between those that learn a second language in childhood and those that learn the language as adults. It explains briefly the idea of a critical period and discusses the interesting aspects that come along with learning a second language later in life. It mentions Broca's and Wernicke's area.

    This article describes the result of an experiment which examined babies' neural responses to social interactions with their parents. They found the amount of brain activity had a positive correlation with their future language development and acquisition at three years old.

    Main reasons places develop their "local tongue" is by geography on who owns what or if that place is very isolated from others. If different places don't come in contact with each other they will have an independent growth and make their own language.
