The attrition of French as a foreign language

Language acquisition is a human endeavor par excellence.

As children, all human beings learn to understand and speak at least one language: their mother tongue.

It is a process that seems to take place without any obvious effort.

Second language learning, particularly among adults, causes more difficulty.

The purpose of this series is to compile a collection of high-quality monographs on language acquisition.

The series serves the needs of everyone who wants to know more about the problem of language acquisition in general and/or about language acquisition in specific contexts.
