<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"" lang="EN-US">We are now inviting abstracts
for the annual thematic issue of the International Journal of
Bilingualism (IJB) to be published in March 2015. The topic of the proposed
thematic issue is <b><i>“Cross-linguistic aspects in child L2 acquisition” </i></b>and intends
to bring together contributions from researchers examining the acquisition of
interface and syntax-only phenomena in child L2 learners from a
cross-linguistic perspective and/or by using different methodologies
(production, off-line/on-line comprehension).</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"" lang="EN-US">Our thematic issue will seek to
comprise articles investigating how target language (TL) properties influence child
L2 acquisition, whether acquisition of different kinds of interface conditions influences
transfer differently, how the acquisition pattern can be mediated by external
factors such as age of onset (AoO), length of exposure (LoE) to the L2 and quality
of input, and how transfer can interact with TL properties to give rise to
different acquisition patterns cross-linguistically. Finally, by comparing
different modalities such as production, off-line and on-line comprehension, we
will address possible (a)symmetries between production and comprehension, and we
will investigate the nature of the potential production problems in L2 children
with different AoO and LoE.</span></p>
