[QUOTE="PoloMint, post: 381590, member: 175235"] Try and learn a foreign language after you are 20 and no matter how much work you put in, you will probably always have a slight (or not so slight) accent. However learn a foreign language when you are 1-10 years old (grow up in a household with two languages being spoken) and with little effort you will pick them both up fluently and with a natural accent in both. There are some things you just can't do as well as when you were a kid. One of the 'features' of being human. [/QUOTE]
