Abstract

This paper focuses on bilingual twins it compares and contrasts their responses with or without phonological awareness, cultural preference, and personal choice on specific stimuli. Employing a clearly defined approach, data were gathered and processed to reveal the impact of bilingualism on language development and learning ability. The results imply that bilingual twins have distinct, language acquisition patterns that depend on sociocultural environment and interpersonal communication as supported by current theoretical accounts of bilingualism and cognitive development.
