Abstract
Description
Language has already become an important aspect of our life, but mastering how to speak one seems harder than most of us have ever imagined. This is because it encompasses factors of outward and inward types that directly have impact on how we acquire language. A lot more scholars have delved deeply into language acquisition and have attached a greater importance to age by considering it a dominant one among other factors (Zhou Li, 2015). Moreover, some researchers have a long-held belief that children are thought to be more successful at learning how to speak a target language than adults do. And only they can master their language proficiency to the level that is close to that of native (Flege et al., 1995; Yeni-Komshian et al.1997).
