Abstract:
Do children get confused if you speak to them in more than one language? Does speaking more than one language make you smarter? What is the best language to learn? Wouldn't it be better if we all spoke the same language? These are some of the questions postgraduate students from the Linguistics department at SOAS investigate in this short yet informative podcast about multilingualism. This podcast was produced by Ebany Dohle, as part of AHRC funded multilingualism scheme to promote multilingual research.
