Do children learn new languages more easily?
CHILDREN LEARN NEW LANGUAGES EASILY.
I agree with this statement. A few months ago, I listened to a lecture about children. I watched a video at this lecture. The video explained that children usually have an innate ability to acquire language. Because of this, they learn new languages more easily and quickly than adults.
