Language Acquisition
Learning a second language doesnotcause language confusion, languagedelay or cognitive deficit, which have beenconcerns in the past. In fact, according tostudies at the Cornell Language AcquisitionLab (CLAL), children who learn a secondlanguage can maintain attentiondespiteoutside stimuli betterthan children who
know onlyone language.- Susan Lang
