The most interesting point in the language unit

In the language unit, I'm really interested in the effects of age to second language learning. People who began to study second language in their childhood are more likely to be successful than other people. Especially, their pronunciation will be similar to the native speaker. It is because of if they start in childhood, they will have more time to practice and they won't shy to speak their second language. However, if they start when they are adult, they will embarrass about their level of language which is affects their movtivation to continue learning. They will think that they are old but their language is not good so they don't want to practise it.

I do agree with your point of view, and also i think that children have better ablility of imitation, and more easy to take certain habit of doing something. Particularly, when they learn a second language with a native speaker since childhood, they would adapt to the correct & pure pronounciation natually and then used to it.
