Why is it easier for children to learn multiple languages fluently compared to adults ?

394 viewsBiologyOther

Exposure of multiple languages to children at a young age can help them learn languages faster and more fluently than if exposed as adults. Is it because children’s brains are more receptive to language at a young age? Is it because your mind has already developed a ‘default’ language when you’re older?
Why isn’t this pattern applicable to something like mathematics/any other subject?

It’s the same as why kids can learn athletics. The body and brain is still forming so it’s easy to create new ways of thinking.
