Explanation

Language ability is typically measured in two active parts: Speaking and Writing And two passive parts: Listening and reading

AS a compound bilingual, Gabriela develops two linguistic codes simultaneously

This hypothesis claims that there is an ideal time window to acquire language in a linguistically rich environment, after which further language acquisition becomes much more difficult and effortful.

1. Higher density of the grey matter 2. More activity in certain regions 3. Delay the onset of diseases
