Bilingual Child-Language Acquisition along the United States—Mexico Border: The El Paso—Ciudad Juárez—Las Cruces Triangle
The multilingual-multicultural Southwest provides a ready laboratory for the study of bilingual child-language ontogeny.

Language acquisition is viewed in the light of the multiple model-sources to which children of varying socioeconomic status are exposed…
