Explanation:

Universal Adaptability is a term that refers to the ability that infants have where they have the capacity to distinguish sounds and can reproduce them, no matter the language.

Infants usually lose this ability around 8 months to 1 year of age when they start to learn the patterns of his native language.

In the example, Janet Werker found that babies younger than eight months could discriminate among sounds in all languages and that infants older than one year had lost this ability, this is the definition we just gave for Universal adaptability.

Note:

Symbolic representation refers to the process that mentally represents objects by using symbols.

Linguistic relativity is a theory that states that the language we speak affects our perception of the world and our self-perception.

Babbling is the process that younger infants go through were they just try to imitate the sounds they hear around them but without articulating a fully understandable word.
