Last year I had the honour to present a seminar on the processes that underlie language acquisition and production in bilinguals and multilinguals at Harrovians at their first meeting that year. Questions that I got in response made me realise that there is an active interest in knowing about how the mind works to understand and produce multiple languages. This is no surprise because if there is one fact that we can all be certain about, it is that a large portion of humankind speaks more than one language. Each and everyone of us is a polyglot to a certain extent. A polyglot is someone who speaks or knows several languages. This experience inspired me to create this blog to share research, insights, and events in the area of language learning. Naturally, posts will be made in multiple languages :)
