Abstract

Different linguistic and psychological trends have achieved well-known results, in Institutes and Scientific Research Centers, directed by specialists in the field. We have distinguished among these authors those who are known today for dealing with such topics, dividing them into 2 groups: (i) Psychologists and linguists, who have made language acquisition of children the object of their work, and (ii) Researchers, psychologists and pedagogues, who have also dealt with evolutionary disorders during the language acquisition process at these ages.


The method used in this article is an analytical-descriptive one. An analysis of Albanian and foreign authors has been made, as far as the language acquisition of children in infancy and childhood is concerned, but also with homogeneous groups and classes, divided on the basis of evolutionary development, social and cultural conditions, origin and according to age groups of children.


The following treatment gives a brief summary on how babies learn to speak naturally,  how language comes to humans, and how many stages the individual must go through in order to learn to speak. Even linguists and writers in this field have long highlighted these issues in the first textbooks, such as the primers of different languages.


In closing this presentation of ideas, opinions and practical achivements of researchers during experiments, tests, and short-term and long-term observations with individuals or groups of people, in the field of studies on the acquisition of the first language, it is and will continue to be a dynamic field with many open issues that grab you and attract you to new research. Which theory (or combination of theories) is in such a position that it seeks to give the most correct ways of language development in children? How many cross-linguistic and cross-cultural variants exist within language acquisition? How can more complete answers to such questions help to understand the human mind? These questions are pretty far to get an answer, but close searches can bring us closer to solving the puzzle.
