I found this interesting article today about children who are exposed to a language while
still in the womb are able to perceive the language as linguistically relevant, even
after having not heard it for 12 years. The results were almost identical to the group
that were raised bilingually.
I wonder if this could be used as a means of enabling a child to learn, or at least have
an ear for a language the parent would like the child to know.
