Language Brokering in Immigrant Families: Theories and Contexts

Robert S. Weisskirch, "Language Brokering in Immigrant Families: Theories and Contexts"
English | ISBN: 1138185140 | 2017 | 312 pages | EPUB | 3 MB

Language Brokering in Immigrant Families: Theories and Contexts brings together an international group of researchers to share their findings on language brokering―when immigrant children translate for their parents and other adults.
