The Multilingual Mind: Issues Discussed By, For, and About People Living with Many Languages
by Tracey Tokuhama-Espinosa [edit]
|
DescriptionThe bulk of the world's population is multilingual, and one in seven Americans speak a language other than English at home. Multilinguals crave answers to questions both basic and profound, questions relating to linguistic identity, schools, multiliteracy, how languages are actually learned, and why there are so many variations on individual success. Tokuhama-Espinosa combines solid research, humor, and real-life examples into 21 informative and entertaining essays about people who experience the world with multiple languages. |
