Focusing on the acquisition of languages beyond the second language, this book delves into four main areas: crosslinguistic influence, models of multilingual speech production, the structure of the multilingual lexicon, and the effects of bilingualism and multilingualism on cognitive development. It presents a comprehensive analysis of how additional languages are learned and processed, highlighting the complexities of multilingualism and its implications for cognitive growth.

This book addresses the need for research and guidance on testing multilingual students. The author introduces an integrated approach to testing and assessment; provides guidelines for test-writers, teachers and educators; and demonstrates how to use the integrated approach to testing and assessment in a multilingual educational context.
