Many people believe that it is too late to learn a new language after thirty. However, scientists have found that adults can learn languages very successfully. Children usually copy sounds better, but adults are often better at understanding grammar. Oksana moved to Porto three years ago and could not speak a word of Portuguese. At first she was embarrassed to make mistakes in shops and at the doctor’s. Then she joined a free course for immigrants and started watching Portuguese TV series with subtitles. She also tried to speak Portuguese with her neighbours every day, even when it was difficult. Now she can deal with most everyday situations, and last month she passed an official A2 exam. “If I waited until my Portuguese was perfect, I would never speak to anyone,” she says. Teachers say that regular practice is more important than talent or age.
