I find it amazing that if a child is brought up in a community/country different from the origin of the child, the child is still able to pick up and speak their language fluently. Our ability, as humans, to imitate and communicate is incredibly complex regardless of where we are from.

So my question is, is there a language that cannot be spoken like this? One which only people with a certain genetic advantage can speak fluently during upbringing.

Of course anyone can learn a language by putting effort into it. My question is only for one learnt during upbringing (native language).

(Not sure why my responses are downvoted. I’m a non-native English speaker. Sorry if I didn’t communicate something properly. It’s just a scientific curiosity.)

    But please stop this trend of putting words into people’s mouths and negativistic spin on things.

    No.

    Google “sealioning” and “JAQing off” to understand why not.

      I see people accusing others of sealiening in order to dismiss their argument more often than actual sealioning.

      Well if you can’t tell the difference. There is nothing more to say.

      Hope you can look at the world more positively and leave the rest of us alone.

        Hope one day you wake up, get out of your fantasy world and join us in the real one. Making it better requires looking clearly at reality, not wearing pink colored glasses.

        Less dreaming, less prayer, and more reality.
