| Abstract | "In the world today, bilingualism is more common than monolingualism. Thus, the default mental lexicon may in fact be the bilingual lexicon. More than ever, social and technological innovation have created a situation in which lexical knowledge may change dramatically throughout an individual's lifetime. This book offers a new perspective for the understanding of these phenomena and their consequences for the representation of words in the mind and brain."-- From publisher info. |
