What is bilingualism ?
Sequential bilingual
Simultaneous bilingual

THE DIFFERENT types of BILINGUALS
What is bilingualism ?
Bimodal bilingual
Receptive bilingual
Late bilingual
- understands multiple languages
- receiving more than 2 languages (reading, listening) vs producing multiple languages (speaking, writing)
- learned a 2nd language during adulthood (after the age of puberty)
- a type of sequential bilingual
- signed and spoken languages
- competences in 1 oral language and 1 signed language → 2 different modalities
Reasons to study new languages
What happens in the brain ?
→ more of these neurons and dendrites → denser gray matter
→ increased white matter integrity → boosts their brain's reserves
► novelty + practice = powerful brain exercice
