What is the age of second language acquisition?
The age of second language (L2) acquisition is a factor that has raised a lot of interest and controversy. This phenomenon is called the “critical period” or “time sensitive” According to Lenneberg, the critical period for language acquisition begins around the age of two.
Does age affect L2 acquisition?

Is there a biologically based critical period for second language acquisition?
