Les Français semblent peiner plus que leurs voisins à parler plusieurs langues. Et chacun de chercher les raisons de cet état de fait. Mais que se passe-t-il dans le cerveau de ceux qui parlent au moins deux langues ? Y a-t-il une différence entre les bilingues précoces et les bilingues tardifs ? Y a-t-il toujours une langue dominante ? Peut-on définir un âge où l'acquisition d'une deuxième langue est facilitée ? Quels effets l'apprentissage de plusieurs langues a-t-il sur notre cerveau ? En proposant une synthèse des recherches consacrées aux mécanismes cognitifs, linguistiques et neurocognitifs à l'oeuvre chez toute personne qui s'exprime, avec plus ou moins de facilité, dans plusieurs langues, Michèle Kail nous invite à mieux comprendre les ressorts de l'apprentissage des langues. Elle met, enfin, en lumière comment la pratique régulière d'au moins deux langues peut accroître la flexibilité cognitive.

How are words organized in the bilingual mind? How are they linked to concepts? How do bi- and multilinguals process words in their multiple languages? The first aim of this volume is to offer up-to-date answers to these questions. Its second aim is to provide readers with detailed step-by-step introductions to a variety of methodological approaches used to investigate the bilingual lexicon, from traditional neurocognitive and psycholinguistic approaches to the more recent ones that examine language use in context.

This collection brings together leading names in the field of bilingualism research to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Studies in Bilingualism series. Over the last 25 years the study of bilingualism has received a tremendous amount of attention from linguists, psychologists, cognitive scientists, and neuroscientists. The breadth of coverage in this volume is a testament to the many different aspects of bilingualism that continue to generate phenomenal interest in the scholarly community. The bilingual experience is captured through a multifaceted prism that includes aspects of language and literacy development in child bilinguals with and without developmental language disorders, language processing and mental representations in adult bilinguals across the lifespan, and the cognitive and neurological basis of bilingualism. Different theoretical approaches – from generative UG-based models to constructivist usage-based models – are brought to bear on the nature of bilingual linguistic knowledge. The end result is a compendium of the state-of-the-art of a field that is in constant evolution and that is on an upward trajectory of discovery.
