Bilingualism provides a concise and lively introduction to
bilingualism as a social and linguistic phenomenon and explains its
impact on individuals and on society. Addressing questions such as
what it means to be bilingual, how one becomes bilingual, and how
exposure to more than one language affects a child's cognitive
development, this book features: an introduction to the linguistic,
sociolinguistic, and cognitive outcomes of bilingualism, including
bilingual language acquisition, the grammar of language-mixing, the
link between language choice and identity, and the value of
maintaining and promoting bilingualism; up-to-date overviews of the
prominent concerns and facts about bilingualism; activities and
discussion questions which invite readers to consider their own
perspectives on bilingualism and how it manifests in their own
lives and communities; links to relevant videos and suggested
further reading, including topical novels, short stories, and
essays. Aimed at students with no background in linguistics, this
book is essential reading for anyone studying bilingualism for the
first time.
