Semantics system in bilinguals

Not a separate system for each language — semantic system shared for all languages

Bilingualism Theories


(Discrete or Continuum?)

Bilingualism lies on a continuum of language proficiency and in different language modalities (i.e., oral, written, signed)

Language use and context

Language can be used in different contexts and to different degrees (i.e. using 100% Spanish in church, 100% English at work, etc.)

Language access and activation theory

Languages are accessed and activated at the same time — not considered as separate systems that do not interfere with each other

Bilingual Aphasia Recover Patterns (Paradis, 1998)

Parallel (61%) = Both L1 and L2 impaired the same


Differential (18%) = L2 (less proficient) recovers more that L1 (more proficient)


Blended (9%) = inappropriate blending of L1 and L2 (pathological code switching)


Selective (7%) = only one language recovers


Successive (5%) = one language improves then the other


Alternating antagonistic = improvement in one language negatively affects other language

6 types

Bilingual Assessment (General)

- No normed materials on bilinguals for language assessment


- Must have a professional translator (not family member)

Language proficiency questionnaires (LEAP-Q, %Time Use/Context, Self-ratings)
