Project Scope
The Use of Temporal, Adversative and Causal Connectives by Bilingual Children
Masahiko Minami has spent many years researching how bilingual children and adults understand and communicate in two or more languages. As his CTFD project, he is continuing to explore and explicate the language and learning relationship, by revealing how bilingual children use temporal, adversative and causal connectives in story-telling, and what features of each language they emphasize in narrative. His research is very influential in bilingual teaching policies and practices.
