Babys beginnen, die Sprache zu verarbeiten, bevor sie geboren werden, und schlägt eine neue Studie vor, die in Nature Communications Biology veröffentlicht wurde. Ein Forschungsteam hat herausgefunden, dass Neugeborene, die in Fremdsprachen Kurzgeschichten gehört hatten, diese Sprachen im Mutterleib ähnlich wie ihre Muttersprache verarbeiten.

shhh don’t give them ideas, they’ll start enrolling them in school before birth
I read to my children before they were born
In that they don’t understand any of it.
Time to start speaking Swahili to expectant mothers
I thought the fact we begin learning language in the womb was accepted science long ago.
obviously unborn babies have almost no way of attributing anything they hear to the world around them, but simply familiarizing oneself with patterns and sonic character of speech is way more important to learning a language than a lot of people realize
What does native tongue even mean to a fetus?
Some good chunk of this the stuff that was known. We are aware that babies can to some extent hear their parents, and favor their parents voic immediately after birth.
Because of this, when my ex-wife was pregnant, I used to cut my hands over her belly and shout „hello bebe!!!!“ Into her tummy, because baby had to get to know me!
Cool that it even works for second languages. If you want your baby to learn English and German, put some headphones over the uterus and play both :p
This makes so much sense. My third granddaughter was born when her older sisters were 8 and 10. That family never ever shuts up. They talk; they joke; they sing, and they laugh all the time. They really never shut up!She started showing signs of language development early.
