My PhD research is now out open access: www.mdpi.com/2226-471X/10...! 🎉 On English–Italian late bilinguals 🇬🇧🇮🇹 showing #L1 #attrition as a natural, domain- & experience-dependent outcome of #bilingualism, involving a complex (possibly inverse) relationship between L1 & L2. @schoolofppls.bsky.social
Not at all – thanks again for writing it, Sam 😊 Seeing how AI is already impacting how we teach and do research, there'll be plenty to think and write about in the coming years, from the challenges it brings to the possibilities it opens up. Looking forward to it!
