[FRIAM] Learn languages

[Alfredo Covaleda Vélez]

When children live in multilingual environments and/or move from country to
country to face new languages they achieve to speak fluently several
languages at an very early age. I am not sure which one is the native
language of the children of my family. Maybe they have multiple native
languages.
