 In the exploration of the linguistic life cycle, it is apparent that it is much more difficult to learn a 
second language in adulthood than a first language in childhood. Most adults never completely master 
foreign language, especially in phonology - hence the ubiquitous foreign accent. Their development often 
"fossilizes" into permanent error patterns that no teaching or correction can do. Of course, there are great 
individual differences, which depend on effort, attitudes, amount of exposure, quality of teaching and 
plain talent, but there seems to be a cap for the best adults in the best circumstances.
 Many explanations have been advanced for children's superiority: they exploit Motherless (the 
simplified, repetitive conversation between parents and children), make errors oneself- consciously, are 
more motivated to communicate, like to conform, are not set in their ways, and have no first language to 
interfere. But some of these accounts are unlikely, based on what is known about how language 
acquisition works. Recent evidence is calling these social and motivation explanations into doubt. 
Holding every other factor constant, a key factor stands out: sheer age.
 Systematic evidence comes from the psychologist Elisa Newport and her colleagues. They tested 
Korean and Chinese-born students at the University of Illinois who had spent at least ten years in the 
United States. The immigrants were given a list of 276 simple English sentences, half of them containing 
some grammatical errors. The immigrants who came to the United States between the ages of 3 and 7 
performed identically to American bom students. Those who arrived between the ages of 8 and 15 did 
worse the later they arrived, and those who arrived between 17 and 39 did the worst of all, and showed 
huge variability unrelated to their age of arrival.
