Learning a Language as an Adult

How does age affect language learning? This was a question on my blog. Here is my answer. I don’t think it affects it very much.

Timelines:
0:13 Age is in your mind.
1:38 The way children, adults and seniors learn a language.
2:52 Noticing beats memory.
4:31 Does age has an influence on the way I learn languages?
5:30 Why children pick languages up naturally.
6:08 Are you going to struggle with language learning when you pass 20?
8:00 When I am ripe enough to study grammar.
8:34 Is age a really big deal?
