Abstract

Psycholinguistic characteristics of the development of early Bilingualism

The early practice of the simultaneous use of several languages in communication has a significant impact on the formation of the brain. The brain of an early bilingual grows and develops under the influence of the need to distinguish between speech signals of different languages, organize speech material, switch from one code to another one. Early mastery of languages starts the formation of neural ensembles necessary for the quick solution of the problem of choosing an option directly in the process of implementing a program of activities, both verbal and nonverbal. A monolingual brain cannot activate a similar neural ensemble in solving such problems.
