How do children in multilingual households differentiate between the two (or more) languages they’re being taught?
In: Other
Personally, I didn’t find it difficult. I think growing up with the concept that a thing and its words are separate helped me develop abstract wordless thinking. Us kids spoke Swedish with our parents and with each other at home, and Norwegian when with friends. I can still switch effortlessly, though I mostly speak Swedish nowadays as I moved after growing up.
