<font face="tahoma, sans-serif">Greetings, I also want to add here that there is a rich but poorly documented aspect of 2nd language acquisition, that of ritual induced 2nd language acquisition. Typically, in the ritual life, there is "music" present but not always. I imagine that that there may be similar situations as in my own indigenous community where there are a growing number of younger practitioners who are 2nd language learners. They acquire both the ritual practices and associated language simultaneously. I will be addressing this phenomenon in my AILDI course offering here in Tucson in 2013. :) Hopefully, we can find some supporting articles, etc. Let me know if you find/know of any. </font><div>
