Chapters include studies on cultural migrants acquiring French, Italian, Spanish and English and consider linguistic, psycholinguistic, sociolinguistic and pragmatic aspects of language acquisition. Cultural migrants have social and psychological advantages when acquiring a second language as adults, and the study of their linguistic knowledge and production increases our understanding of the possibilities and limits of L2 ultimate attainment. The work thus fills a gap in our understanding of high-level proficiency and will be of interest to researchers working in the field of SLA, as well as to social scientists studying the relationship between language, culture and integration.Second language acquisition (Clevedon, England) ;91.Linguistic minoritiesEuropeSecond language acquisitionEuropeLanguage and languagesStudy and teachingEuropeLanguage and cultureEuropeLinguistic minoritiesSecond language acquisitionLanguage and languagesStudy and teachingLanguage and culture306.44/94Bartning Inge, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtForsberg Lundell Fanny, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9911009209703321Cultural Migrants and Optimal Language Acquisition4395940UNINA
