Genes influence the child's learning process just like the environment, as the human being grows to become a product of their genes. Genetic predisposition, or the pre-existing genetic readiness, allows children to form their experiences, gain knowledge, represent events and facts, and create perceptions, all of which determine their developmental trajectory. Modern linguistic research has undergone significant advancements, benefiting from the interaction of various scientific fields, such as genetics, biology, neuroscience, and anatomy, in the domain of language learning and education.
In this study, we will explore the relationship between language learning and genes by examining the genetic foundations of linguistic abilities and studying the responsible genes and how their organization and interaction shape and influence language within the human brain. This field of research extends beyond this point, as most studies have delved into genetic language disorders not only for descriptive purposes but also to predict them by studying the genetic history of parents and finding radical solutions for them.
