Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research suggests that infants lose the ability to distinguish between certain phonemes in non-native languages around 8-10 months old, as their brains begin to specialize in processing the language(s) they are consistently exposed to. This process, known as phoneme regression, makes it difficult for adults to distinguish between those same phonemes in non-native languages.
