Abstract

Infancy is considered to be the most critical; hence highly important phase around the human brain development. Indistinct changes in this stage are thus escalated with various developmental processes, focusing on the far- ready consequences. Studies on the structural exemplification of the infant brain is highly prolific. Thus, at the infancy stage; language accretion is an instinctive process. Neurobiologist Dr. Lisi Eliot writes “the reason language is instinctive because it is to a large extent, hard wired in a brain, together with a sophisticated vocal apparatus, evolved a complex neural circuit for rapidly perceiving, analyzing, composing and producing language. (Eliot, 1999).
