In this blog I will talk about the Bilingualism, Trilingualism and multilingualism. Here I first explain what is meaning of this three words.
Bilingualism : The word bilingualism simply means fluency in or use of two languages. It talks about the use and understanding of two language simultaneously.
Trilingualism : Trilingualism is also like bilingualism. The little difference between this two is in Trilingualism person can use and can there language simultaneously.
Multilingualism : Multilingualism is also like bilingualism and Trilingualism. It talks about use or understanding of multiple language simultaneously.
How it is useful for students :
As this blog is part of my English language teaching (ELT -1) paper 1 Here First I explain that how it is useful for students.
Sometime student learning more then two language together or sometime it happen that students mothertoung is different and in the language they study is different so if there teacher can use both the language together so they can understand in batter way.
Example :
Bilingualism :
1. Smile ( word for happy gesture in English)
Wéixiào ( word for happy gesture in Chinese )
Trilingualism :
Smile ( word for happy gesture in English)
Wéixiào ( word for happy gesture in Chinese )
Sourire ( word for happy gesture in French )
Multilingualism :
Smile ( word for happy gesture in English)
Wéixiào ( word for happy gesture in Chinese )
Sourire ( word for happy gesture in French )
Chamógelo ( word for happy gesture in Greek )
There is also one example of multilingualism in the Bollywood song of Amitabh Bachchan in the movie Khuddar.
In this song We see that Amitabh bacchan says I love you in multiple language like Hindi, English, Gujarati , Bangali, Punjabi.
Apart from the lyrics of I love you the other lyrics of the song are also in both the language Hindi as well as English.
Here I also put the link of the song.
