Was sollte der Begriff der Mehrsprachigkeit alles umfassen?

The contribution aims at * arguing about a valuable definition of multilingualism – proposing also to connect it with the term multicompetence; * giving some examples of how neurolinguistics and sociolinguistics can – adopting an interdisciplinary approach – give important insights into how multilingual experience modulates the brain. * It will also propose to look at forgotten phenomena, such as the influence of multilingualism on both sides of language contact: not only in the minority but also in the language majority (language adoption).
