"The simplest way is to talk to your baby and around your baby a lot," says Aamodt. "And the other thing that parents can do is to respond when the baby speaks, Just act like some communication has happened--smile and give the baby a little pat--and that encourages the baby to continue to try to communicate."

　　But because language is so social, says MR. Wang, Aamodt’s workmate, passive exposure to words really doesn't help babies learn in any way.

　　"For example, videos that are often shown to babies containing language are not nearly so effective," he says.

　　"Language is acquired quite well before the age of 6, but trying to force your children to read before the age of 4 is an effort that doesn't work very well because the brain is not very well-equipped to tell the letter 'b' from the letter 'd' and so on," says Wang. "But it's something that older children can do without any effort at all."

　　"Kids learning two languages young are better able to learn different rules and to exchange rules that they've already learned," says Aamodt. "They have little difficulty choosing between conflicting possibilities."
