This article examines childhood in the digital environment, focusing on the factors influencing language acquisition in modern conditions. It also provides an analysis of the scientific research conducted by both foreign and domestic scholars in this field. Digital technologies have become so deeply integrated into our modern lives that it is almost impossible to completely exclude them from our daily routines. Therefore, this article comprehensively highlights the key factors of language acquisition that require attention during children’s verbal interaction with digital devices such as smartphones. From the earliest stages of ontogenesis, children engage directly or indirectly with digital means of communication.
