| PURPOSE OF FOUNDATION | Under the theme of "Words and Humans," our objective is to deepen scientific research of language and humans and contribute to international understanding and coexistence of people through the natural acquisition of different languages and practice of international exchange. |
| INTRODUCTION | We are involved in creating an environment where people can grow together while naturally picking-up language from a variety of countries with their family; alongside members of the community, meet new people from around the world and of different ages. We welcome children and adults to participate in homestays; exchange students from high schools or universities and are accepting volunteers. Our research activities focus on child language acquisition. |
| PR | We currently have speakers of 22 different languages, with a focus on Spanish, Korean, English, Japanese, French, Chinese, and German. We are focused on the question of “how do infants come to speak?” We create an environment where multiple languages can be naturally cultivated together with friends across all ages. （Updated：October 8, 2026） |
