I recall a researcher filming their child from the day they were born until they began to speak. They wanted to find how many times a child had to hear a word in order to be able to repeat it back to the parent. The result, I think, was that if the child heard the word 2,000 times at all, they would be able to repeat it. But, if they heard the word 600 times at the same place, for instance the end of the couch, that would be enough to repeat it.
The human brain requires less training, but to some extent it is pretrained by our genetic code. The human brain will take on a predictable structure with any sort of training.
