Exploring the development of bilingualism in children exposed to English and Cantonese from birth, this book reveals how language acquisition occurs naturally in response to their environment. It highlights the unique profiles of bilingual children, showing their distinct developmental patterns compared to monolingual peers. The authors emphasize the interactions between the children's grammars and the influence of language dominance on their bilingual journey. Grounded in original research, it serves as a valuable resource for students and scholars in child language acquisition and bilingualism.
