The Re-emergence of Spanish and Hebrew in a Multilingual Adolescent
|
|
Eduardo D. Faingold

This paper traces the re-emergence of Spanish and Hebrew, the first languages of the author's son, after six years spent in an all English-speaking environment. In adolescence, Spanish and Hebrew are re-emerging,
due to positive attitudes towards the minority languages in the teenager's surroundings. The data consists of tape-recorded sessions, supplemented by a diary and cards with notes and linguistic examples
from age 0;6 until 14;3.
