The thirteen contributions in this volume offer a glimpse of the diversity of bilingualism present in the Hispanic and Lusophone world, shedding light on the sheer variety of speaker communities, language pairings (e.g., Spanish-English, Spanish-Basque, Spanish-Dutch, Portuguese-Spanish-English, Portuguese-English, Spanish-K'ichee Maya, and Spanish-Ixcatec) and speaker types (e.g., simultaneous bilinguals, and early and late sequential bilinguals). The diversity present in this collection of papers, both in empirical coverage and methodological and theoretical approaches, will be of interest to a wide range of students and researchers in bilingualism and Hispanic and Lusophone linguistics Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher Subject Languages in contact -- Iberian Peninsula Languages in contact -- Latin America Portuguese language -- Social aspects Spanish language -- Social aspects Portuguese language -- Grammar Spanish language -- Grammar Intercultural communication -- Iberian Peninsula Intercultural communication -- Latin America Bilingualism -- Iberian Peninsula Bilingualism -- Latin America POLITICAL SCIENCE -- Public Policy -- Cultural Policy.
