Heritage speakers are native speakers of a minority language they
learn at home, but due to socio-political pressure from the
majority language spoken in their community, their heritage
language does not fully develop. In the last decade, the
acquisition of heritage languages has become a central focus of
study within linguistics and applied linguistics. This work centres
on the grammatical development of the heritage language and the
language learning trajectory of heritage speakers, synthesizing
recent experimental research. The Acquisition of Heritage Languages
offers a global perspective, with a wealth of examples from
heritage languages around the world. Written in an accessible
style, this authoritative and up-to-date text is essential reading
for professionals, students, and researchers of all levels working
in the fields of sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, education,
language policies and language teaching.
