Description

Children born into the world on any given day arrive already equipped with a universal potential for acquiring language, any language(s) to which they are exposed and with which they interact. In the case of these same children, within 2-3 years, this potential will have transformed itself into over 5000 different languages being spoken. This suggests that a life lived monolingually misses out on something that is essentially human. Yet, as a result of global and other forces, many of the 5000 or more languages are heading for extinction. Many of them are the first languages of their speakers who, as Professor Lo Bianco confirms, are often relatively few in number. The world's multilingualism is further compromised by serious attrition from the learning provision of additional languages in the educational system. In Section 1 of his review Lo Bianco shows how the odds are stacked against the successful teaching of additional languages in an English-dominated world. He vividly illustrates the many differences between most contexts for a child's successful acquisition of their first language in the home and local community and their often much less successful acquisition of an additional language in a more formal educational setting.
