What is the impact of bilingualism on foreign language acquisition?

Focusing on the relationship between bilingualism and foreign language acquisition, this seminar paper compares two studies: one investigates the influence of using a minority language at home, while the other explores bilingualism as a resource for language minority students. By analyzing these studies, the paper aims to enhance understanding of how bilingualism impacts foreign language learning and suggests areas for further research. It highlights the significance of this relationship in light of the increasing global bilingual population, offering insights for educators and policymakers.
