Question 2
Tayro speaks Spanish and English. His wife, Noriko, speaks Japanese and English. They currently live in an English-speaking country and have a new baby, Kai. They would like him to speak all three languages and have asked for your advice. What would you tell them?
◦ Because he is learning three different languages at once, Kai will probably be significantly behind his monolingual peers on language milestones.
◦ They should speak all three languages to him, but he is not able to hear the differences in languages until age 12, so there is no rush.
◦ As an infant, Kai can distinguish between sounds in all languages until 9 months old. He should be exposed to all three languages during this time.
◦ The best thing would be to hire a trilingual nanny who speaks English, Spanish, and Japanese because neither of his parents speaks all three languages.
