Life with Two Languages
Abstrak
In 1979, the author taught a course on bilingualism for the first time. Since there was no adequate textbook on the topic, he contacted Harvard University Press and offered to write a book on the subject. They accepted and the book came out in 1982. It was original in many ways, among them the personal testimonies of bilinguals and the many examples of bilingual speech. During this time, the author met with the bilingualism specialist, Einar Haugen. He and his wife, Eva, encouraged the author and helped him accept his own bilingualism. He remained in touch with the couple until they passed away in the 1990s. The author honored them recently at the Einar Haugen lecture in Oslo.
