Définition(s)
- Language competence is an essential component of personal, academic, and economic processes and success. Children of first-generation immigrants, who are raised in homes where a language other than English is spoken, grow up with a better-than-average opportunity to develop additive bilingualism, that is, proficiency in both English and their heritage language.
