Project: Research

Project Details

Popular science description

We study the development of French in bilingual children, with different ages of onset of French: birth (one parent French speaking), age of 3, age of 6 (both parents Swedish-speaking). How does the Age of Onset influence the development of their French? And what is the influence of their time of exposure to French, of their actual age, or of the development of their Swedish language?
