FOREIGN LANGUAGE AS AN EDUCATINAL SUBJECT

Abstract

This article examines an important point in the difference between teaching a native language and teaching a foreign language is that mastery of the native language occurs in the sensitive period, that is, in the most language-sensitive period in the child’s development. When learning a foreign language, even in elementary school or the senior group of kindergarten, it is not carried out in the most sensitive period, but at best at 5-6 years, that is, at the end of this period.

Keywords
