Living in a polyglot family, one of the aspects that the understanding of the mechanisms by which the people is above all newborn babies, a new language more than others trigger my curiosity.
According to common sense, infants are less intelligent than adults, as intelligence is to be with age as something that grows naturally. When making such considerations, though, we must be careful not intelligence, to be confused with the level of real life experiences: on one of the most commonaccepted definitions of intelligence is more or less: "The ability of the solution of new problems." Learn to speak your first language, should be considered a completely different thing, learning a second (or third), because it is much more a challenge - for starters, you can not learn it in textbooks, such as They are still learning all the languages could be a textbook to be written in.
How does a baby learns its first language, then?
The process of language learning starts wellmumbles before the first: There is no doubt about the fact that babies in the womb move in response to noise. Before she is born, they can listen to her mother calls. You will not recognize the words, obviously (acoustics are probably bad), but they probably recognize their mother's speech patterns and tone of voice that will help them, their identification is after partum.
The tune dominated, one of the first problems, the child is to figure out the unitsBuilding sets: where one word ends and not the next time? Research shows that babies of 4-5 months old, on a good point in the development of the ability of the distinction between words as part of the sentence structure.
Own name - and other common words such as "Mama" - is as in the mass of tones, similar to anchor what happens in your head when people talk and act in an unknown language. The research tells us that at 6-month-old babies can recognize a word they hear afterone they are familiar with, the children find words in the speech stream to help.
Then, one of the most difficult steps. How can they know what words mean really? A study by researchers from the U.S. featured on BBC News (found below) suggests that this occurs primarily through social interaction and by association / repetition, learn to like the way of singing birds. If the child sees a dog, and the mother tells him to say, 'Hey, it's a dog!' Can not it clear what theMother is the first time relate to, perhaps, because over a week ago another small dog, and they called it "Doggie." Through repetition and contextual learning, but the baby is finally, connect the sound 'dog' (or 'dog' bit) to a barking animal with four legs and a tail. At the age of 12 months seem baby words objects to be interpreted as marking - and the whole object than its parts or features to meet.
Next they must learn how to take one wordto assemble reasonable rates. This process is usually stimuli on the basis of social interaction more than one baby is surrounded by people talking, the more "data" and to gather information to crack code to our language. They know more about their language than they can say - as you could speak a foreign language could, as to understand you. So, during her first spoken words around 12 months old appear to understand they can have hundreds of words. With 18 yearsMonths, they can usually easily understood by 5-6 word sentences. Once this level is reached, things will get easier from there.
published in a 2006 article on Neuro Report, it is said, that called a new technology MEG, tracking succeeded brain electromagnetic activity to discover that by 12 months, millions of nerve cells in the brain of the two language centers are successfully communicating and connected: first hearing the sound then they produce.
Thus, babies sleep most of the timeand can not be left alone for half an hour, but the next time you see one and think it is not as nearly as smart as you think again, and careful what you say!
