Frühe Mehrsprachigkeit - Probleme des Grammatikerwerbs in multilingualen und multikulturellen Kontexten

This monograph sets out to establish a theoretical framework for the study of childhood linguistic acquisition processes in multilingual contexts, taking account both of natural and guided processes. One of the aims is to identify causes for defective acquisition processes in both first and second languages observable in children from a migrant background. A further objective is to proceed from there to develop a design for use in institutional contexts providing children growing up in multilingual environments with support in linguistic acquisition processes.
