Abstract:

The author investigates the development of children raised bilingually or
multilingually. Parents and caregivers completed a questionnaire, providing
information on 36 children growing up with two or more languages. Their
responses indicate that bilingual and multilingual children usually develop as
well as their monolingual peers, and sometimes even better. Some drawbacks of
early bilingualism or multilingualism, such as a slight delay in the onset of
speech production or asymmetrical language competences, are compensated for by
several benefits of early acquisition of two or more mother tongues and early
contacts with two or more cultures.
