Abstract:

Is acquiring a third language the same as acquiring a second? Are all
instances of non-native language acquisition simply one and the same? In this
first book-length study of the topic, the authors systematically walk the
reader through the evidence to answer these questions. They suggest that
acquiring an additional language in bilinguals (of all types) is unique, and
reveals things about the links between language and mind, brain, and
cognition, which are otherwise impossible to appreciate. The patterns of
linguistic transfer and what motivates it when there are choices (as can only
be seen starting in third language acquisition) underscores a key concept in
linguistic and psychological sciences: economy. Overviewing the subfields
examining multilingual acquisition and processing, this book offers an
expanded systematic review of the field of multilingual morphosyntactic
transfer, as well as providing recommendations for the future emerging field.
 



1. Setting the context; 2. Theoretical approaches to sequential
multilingualism; 3. Multilingual lexis (acquisition and processing) and
phonology; 4. Transfer in multilingual morphosyntax; 5. A review of published
work; 6. Moving on and going forward in L3/Ln acquisition.
