The theme of the 10th ISB is "uncovering multilingualism". New Brunswick, New Jersey is home to a large number of multilingual speakers who speak a variety of native languages of the Americas in addition to Spanish and English. Walking down the streets of the immigrant neighborhoods in the city, one can catch a glimpse of languages from Mexico and Central America that are only used among close networks of speakers. But once the different layers of languages are uncovered, a complex world of linguistic diversity and potential resources emerges as a representation of the larger e\reality of the United  States.

This National Science Foundation funded workshop brings together multidisciplinary researchers to discuss recent findings about how bilingual speakers learn, process and represent the internal structure of words.(Read more)
