Description

Explore the complex drivers of language learning in Language Acquisition and the Multilingual Ideal. Published by Bloomsbury Academic, this book investigates how Japanese language learners develop motivation. It specifically examines the link between a learner's future self-image as a Japanese speaker and their identity as a multilingual individual. Through longitudinal research, the text provides a deep look at how motivation functions across different cultural contexts. The study compares two distinct groups: learners from Australia, an English-speaking nation where Japanese is a primary foreign language, and learners from South Korea. This comparative approach helps clarify how nationality and environment influence the drive to master a new language. This work is a valuable resource for those interested in cognitive psychology and the social aspects of language acquisition. By studying these specific learner groups, the book offers insights into the psychological development of language skills and the broader concept of the multilingual ideal.
