Comment on Do babies learn languages at different rates depending on how hard the language is?

I’m no specialist, but I’d say it is all about exposure.
How often and meaningfully they interact with people speaking different languages makes it easier for them to absorb that information. Is grandma the only person that speaks spanish with them when they visit once a year, while everyone else only speak in english? Yeah, it is going to be harder for them to learn spanish

My question is if you took the average for all babies learning only one language, would you see them acquiring that language and speaking at different times based on the difficulty of the language, or around the same time, based on natural development.
