Children are generally better at learning a new language than adults, and some ages are even better than others.

Ideally, the best age for children to learn a new language is from birth to around seven years old. This is because children in this age group have optimal neuroplasticity, which means their brains are highly receptive to new information and can learn new languages more quickly. Additionally**, this is the period when children learn language through natural, informal interaction with their environment, rather than through structured lessons.**

While it is possible to learn a language at a later age, it becomes increasingly difficult to develop accent-free pronunciation and native-like language proficiency after the age of seven. From the age of ten, children begin to decline in their ability to learn new sounds and grammar, and after adolescence, the ability to learn languages decreases significantly.
