Abstract:
Only 15 years ago bilingualism was somewhat outside the main debates in
cognitive linguistics. Cognitive linguistics had, to a large extent, taken for
granted the fact that language is embodied in our experience. However, not
much attention was given to questions of whether any changes to our language
repertoire alter the way we perceive the world around us. A growing body of
recent research suggests that one cannot understand the cognitive foundations
of language without looking at bi- and multilingual speakers. In this vein,
the present book aims to contribute to the existing debate of the relationship
between language, culture and cognition by assessing differences and
similarities between monolingual and bilingual language acquisition and use.
In particular, it investigates the effect of conceptual-semantic and pragmatic
properties of constructions on code choice and code switching, as well as the
impact of bilingual and bicultural education on speakers’ cognitive
development. This collective volume systematises, reviews, and promotes a
range of theoretical perspectives and research techniques that currently
inform work across the disciplines of bilingualism and code switching.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the
IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the Indiana University Foundation fills in
and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
