Chevalier, Sarah – Multilingua: Journal of Cross-Cultural and Interlanguage Communication, 2013
The situation once described by Hoffmann (1985), in which children grow up exposed to three languages from an early age, is a reality for an increasing number of families. In Europe--as elsewhere--greater mobility is leading to greater numbers of mixed-language couples (Piller 2002), and, by extension, multilingual families. For such families,…

We construct a framework for understanding…
