  Is L3 Phonological Competence Affected by the Learner's Level of Bilingualism?
 
 
Title: Is L3 Phonological Competence Affected by the Learner's Level of Bilingualism?
Author: Puerto, Francisco Gallardo del
Appeared in: International journal of multilingualism
Paging: Volume 4 (2007) nr. 1 pages 1-16
Year: 2007-04-15
Contents: Research on the effect of bilingualism on third language acquisition was initially set in the framework of the study of potential differences between monolinguals acquiring a second language and bilinguals learning a third language. However, many authors have already started to concentrate on third language acquisition itself, and have investigated if there are any differences with regard to target language competence as a function of certain characteristics of the bilingual learner. The number of specific studies on the acquisition of phonology in a third language is extremely limited, though. The article presented here reports a research study on the phonological acquisition of English as a foreign language in an institutional context and, specifically, examines the effect of different levels of bilingual proficiency on phonological competence in the third language.
