About this episode
What happens inside the head when you learn a 2nd language?'The Bilingual Brain' by Albert Costa is a quick summary of academic research on bilingual vs monolingual speakers. He looks at effects that knowing a 2nd language can have on the physical wiring as well as behavioural differences. So things like response times, vocab limits, gray matter density, etc. In the 5 chapters he goes over studies and you'll see some graphs & brain cross sections.If you got value from the podcast please provide support back in any way you best see fit!Timeline:(00:00:00) Intro(00:02:12) Themes/Questions(00:20:56) Author & Extras(00:23:10) Summary(00:25:51) Value 4 Value(00:27:14) Join Live!
