The Development of Language in Children

There are some relationship between children ability in mastering language and their second language. It considers the role of social factors in second language proficiency. In second language learning involves some different process and conditions in every achievement. For example, older learners no longer have the same natural ability to acquire their languages as do young children .Older learners are unlikely to acquire their second languges or native speaker accent than childrens. Childrens are less likely to develop their second language and develop grammatical ability.

The ability in language learning in children are different.They have different foci of interest and attention in language learning. So, teachers need to know how and when to push them (for example, make activities that improve students interest, ask students to make decision about their own learning and give positive feedback). Children have difficulties in developing their second language. The difficulties are to arrange words became a sentence using the right grammatical rules, and arrange every sentence became a coherence paragraph. Actually children have good ideas but they have difficulties in delivering their thought, they also have many basic mistakes about spelling, grammar, and organization. In this case usually children make errors in both comprehension and production of second languages.

Second language acquisition involves more than just producing words and sentences, but children should be able to combine every word and sentences which grammatically linked. Furthermore, the purpose of their language will be delivered well. Language is very important to be learnt by the children because it is used extensively in higher education and in the workplace. If the children do not know how to express their ideas in language, they will not be able to communicate well with other people in the social communication.
