Learn whether certain articulation errors that a bilingual child produces should be counted as incorrect. The sound systems of a bilingual child’s two languages interact in predictable ways. Using Spanish and English as an example, this course provides a framework for identifying “errors” that are typical and those that are atypical.

This course provided a framework that can be applied to any two languages to assess whether speech errors are atypical or due to second language influence. We discussed how a second language influences sound acquisition by identifying which sounds exist in both languages. We approached phonological development with an eye on which processes exist in either language.

Participants will:

Understand typical speech development for bilinguals
