When learners of a new language draw on their native language (or
on any other that they may know), this earlier acquired linguistic
knowledge may influence their success. Such cross-linguistic
influence, also known as language transfer, has long raised
questions about what linguists can predict about success in the new
language and about what processes are involved in using prior
knowledge. This book lucidly brings together many insights on
transfer: e.g. on the relation between translation and transfer,
the relation between comprehension and production, and the problem
of how complete any predictions of difficulty may ever be. The
discussions also explore implications for future research and for
classroom practice. The book will thus serve as a reliable guide
for teachers, researchers, translators, interpreters, and students
curious about language contact.
