The critical age hypothesis suggests that there is a specific period in an individual's development during which they are most receptive to acquiring certain skills or knowledge. This hypothesis is often applied to language acquisition, suggesting that there is a critical period in childhood during which individuals are most able to learn a new language with native-like proficiency. After this critical period, it becomes increasingly difficult to achieve the same level of fluency. The critical age hypothesis has also been studied in relation to other skills and abilities, such as musical talent and cognitive development.
