Bilingualism
• If a speaker is fluent in two languages, then they are said to be bilingual.
• The commonly held image of a bilingual person is of someone brought up in a culture where they are exposed to two languages from birth.
• It is not necessary for them to be equally fluent in both languages, but at least they should be very competent in the second one.

Some authorities (Bialystock, 2001) distinguish the following:
1. Productive Bilingualism – speakers can produce and understand both languages.
2. Receptive Bilingualism – Speakers can understand both languages but have more limited production abilities.

Categories of Bilingualism
![Page 9: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Categories of Bilingualism
• 1. Simultaneous Bilingualism – L1 and L2 learned about the same time• 2. Early Sequential Bilingualism – L1
learned first, but L2 learned relatively early, in childhood
![Page 10: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• Early Sequential Bilinguals form the largest group world-wide and the number is increasing, particular in countries with large immigration rates.
• 3. Late Bilingualism – L2 learned in adolescence onwards

FACT: One of the Earliest Detailed Studies of Bilingualism: Diary Study of Leopold (1939 - 1949)
• Leopold was a German linguist, whose daughter Hildegard had an American mother and lived from an early age in the USA.
• German was used in the home at first, but this soon gave way to English, the environment language.
![Page 12: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• The diary showed that young children can quickly (within 6 months) forget the old language and pick up a new one, if they move to another country. • Initially the two languages are mixed
up, but differentiation quickly emerges.
![Page 13: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• We observe language mixing when words combine, such an English suffix added to a Filipino root, or English words put into a Filipino syntactic structure, or responding to questions in one language with answers in another.
![Page 14: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Language Mixing
• Switching from one language to another is termed as a crutch syndrome.
• A bilingual who is stumped in one language can keep on speaking by depending on a translated complete utterance, or word or phrase as a stand-by.
• It is divided into two: code-switching and code-mixing, in that order.
![Page 15: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Language Mixing
• In a more nuanced definition where code-switching involves inserting whole utterances – inter-sententially – in a second, non-dominant language during conversa tion, while the more specific term of code-mixing (or borrowing) involves the blending of non-dominant language words or phrases within an utterance – intra-sententially.
![Page 16: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Language Mixing
• Using this definition, and presuming that English is the dominant language in the following utterances:
• ‘Is this what we are having for dinner today? Sira naba tuktok mo? [Are you crazy?] It’s not Saturday and I don’t eat tuyo [smoked/dried fish] except on Saturdays. It just doesn’t seem right!’
![Page 17: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Language Mixing
• The first italicized utterance is a code-switch, while the second italicized word in the next utterance is a code-mix. • Some say that this crutch syndrome
is a model of incompetence.

Language Processing
![Page 19: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Separate-Store Models
• There are separate lexicons for each language.
• These are connected at the semantic level (Potter, So, von Eckardt @ Feldman, 1984).
![Page 20: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Evidence for the separate-store model comes from the finding that the amount of facilitation gained by repeating a word (a technique called repetition priming: or facilitatory – priming by repeating a stimulus) is much greater and longer lasting within than between languages (Kirsner, Smith, Lockhart, King & Jain, 1984), although repetition priming might not be tapping semantic processes (Scarborough, Gerard & Cortese, 1984).
![Page 21: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Common-Store Models
• There is just one lexicon and one semantic memory system, with words from both languages stored in it and connected directly together (Paivio, Clark & Lamber, 1988).
• This model is supported by evidence that semantic priming produces facilitation between languages.
![Page 22: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Studies that minimize the role of attentional processing and participants’ strategies, and that maximize automatic processing suggest that equivalent words share an underlying semantic representation that can mediate priming the words.
![Page 23: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Cognates
• Cognates are words in different languages that have the same root and meaning and which look similar. • This is the mixture of separate-
store and common-store models.
![Page 24: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• For example, concrete words and culturally similar words act as though they are stored in common, whereas abstract and other words act as though they are stored in separate stores.
• Also steering between the common- and separate-stores modes, Grosjean and Soares (1986) argued that the language system is flexible in a bilingual speaker, and that its behavior depends on the circumstances.
![Page 25: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Syntactic Processing
Shared Syntax
![Page 26: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Bilingual Syntactic Processing
• A study of Spanish-English bilingual speakers found that a particular syntactic structure in one language could make it easier to use the same structure in the second language, supporting the “shared syntax” idea (Hartsuiker, Pickering & Vetkamp, 2004).
![Page 27: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• Similarly, Loebell and Bock (2003) found that production of German datives primed the subsequent use of English datives, and vice versa. Similar results have been found in Dutch-English bilinguals (Salamoura & Williams, 2006).

Transfer

Moving Between Languages
• How do we translate between two languages? As we might remember from school, or from our last foreign holiday, translating a foreign language can be fraught with difficulties.
![Page 33: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Kroll and Stewart (1994) proposed the following:
• 1. Forward Translation – They argued that we can translate words from our first language to second language by conceptual mediation (or forward translation). This means that we must access the meaning of a word in order to translate it.
![Page 34: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• 2. Backward Translation – In contrast, we translate from the second language into the first by word association (or backward translation) – that is, we use direct links between items in the lexicon.

Remember!There are probably both costs and benefits of learning two languages at once.
![Page 41: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Remember!L2 acquisition in adulthood and later childhood is difficult because it is not like L1 acquisition.
![Page 42: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Remember!There has been much debate as to how we translate words between languages.
![Page 43: Bilingualism](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013011/547c977eb4af9fa7128b45dd/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Remember!Translation probably does involve conceptual mediation.

Remember!Bilingualism is a useful tool for studying other language processes.
