8Brain Specialisation Hypothesis
- AChildren learn language through initiation and reinforcement
- BThere is an optimal time in life in which a language has to be learnt

9Interactionist Perspecitive
- AThere is an optimal time in life in which a language has to be learnt
- BWe are born with specialised parts of the brain to learn language. However, input from the environment is required for language learning to take place.
