Title | Being Multilingual: Multilingualism Blog |
Body | From http://linguistlist.org/issues/21/21-4227.html Madalena Cruz-Ferreira, the author of the new Being Multilingual Blog, invites you to visit her new online resource: http://beingmultilingual.blogspot.com The aim of this blog is to discuss what it means to be multilingual and what is involved in the regular use of several languages. Multilingualism is often misunderstood, and often correlated with either over-ability or disability. Myths and misconceptions about multilingualism have consequences at home, in school and in clinic. In addition, the languages used by multilinguals are the usual focus of attention. The author’s focus is the people: multilingualism is not about what several languages can do to people, it is about what people can do with several languages. |
