Mode of acquisition
Native bilingualism - growing up in a two language environment Immersion - schooling provided in a non-native language Submersion - one learner surrounded by non-native speakers
Second language acquisition
Contexts of childhood bilingualism
Simultaneous
Both languages are acquired at the same time
Vocabulary growth of bilinguals is similar to that of monolinguals Some aspects of acquisition may be slowed, but by age of 4 typically caught up Doesn’t seem to matter whether languages are “related” or not (e.g., English - French versus English Japanese) Can achieve “fluency” in both languages
Models of the bilingual lexicons
Sequential acquisition
The second language is learned after a first language
When the second language (L2) is acquired is important Early versus late learning (e.g., see the Johnson and Newport study)

Language Acquisition
Announcements
On-line Blackboard quiz for chapter 5 is now up.
You may take it 5 times, top score counts Due Thursday Mar. 1
Language dominance effects
Relative fluency of L1 and L2 may impact processing
Effects of the Critical Period
Learning a First language:
Under 7 years: perfect command of the language possible Ages 8 - 15: Perfect command less possible progressively Age 15 ->: Imperfect command possible
Second language learning
Fleຫໍສະໝຸດ Baidue, Yeni-Komshian, & Liu (1999)
Native Korean speakers moving to US Task: Listen to sentences and judge whether grammatically correct
Second language learning
Johnson and Newport (1989)
Native Chinese/Korean speakers moving to US Task: Listen to sentences and judge whether grammatically correct Concluded that around the age of 16 something happens Different factors operate on language acquisition before and after the age of 16
Tucker (1999) - multilinguals outnumber monolinguals
Researchers may refer to anyone who has or is learning a second language as a “bilingual”
Simultaneous bilinguals (learned two languages at the same time) Sequential bilinguals Developmental (Early) bilingualism (learned second language in childhood) Adult (Late) bilingualism (learned L2 in adulthood) Multilingualism (learned more than 2 languages)
What is the impact of knowing/using more than one language?
Factors affecting second language acquisition? What does the bilingual lexicon look like? Interesting effects in bilinguals Language transfer Language Interference Possible Cognitive advantages
But these claims are far from universally accepted
Learning a Second language
What if we already know one language, but want to learn another?
Adults learning another language typically have a persistent foreign accent – perhaps a critical period for phonology (Flege & Hillenbrand, 1984) Adults typically do better initially at learning a new language compared to kids, but kids typically do better over the long term (Krashen, Long, & Scarcella, 1982)
However Birdsong and Molis (2001)
Replicated the Johnson and Newport study in Spanish/English speakers. Did not find a discontinuity around the age of 16
Second language learning
Johnson and Newport (1989)
Native Chinese/Korean speakers moving to US Task: Listen to sentences and judge whether grammatically correct
Second language acquisition
Frequency of usage of both languages
How often and in what contexts do you use the two languages “Use it or lose it” - language attrition
Bilingual Representations
How do we represent linguistic information in a bilingual lexicon?
Probably depends on many of the factors just discussed Let’s look at some models and research focusing on the situation where L1 is dominant relative to L2
The L1 is already present in the brain Knowledge of the L1 can interfere with learning the L2 The L2 learning experience is different The social experience in learning an L2 is different
Exam 2 is Tuesday, Feb. 28.
Language development section includes information from Chapter 3, pages 72-87, & Chapters 4 & 5
Bilinguals & Polyglots
Many people speak more than one language
Types of sentences used
Past tense Plural Third person singular Present progressive Determiners Pronominalization Particle movement Subcategorization Auxillaries Yes/no questions Wh-questions Word order
