Rana Zeynali Hamied; Sima Modirkhamene – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2025
Learning a language is one typical and common cognitive phenomenon among human beings. What matters even most, is the additional language learning and advantages it may confer; an issue which cannot be simply overlooked in cognitive studies. The developmental effect of learning an additional language on memory is something that is confirmed in…

Chatchanok Chanyeam; Nuntana Wongthai – LEARN Journal: Language Education and Acquisition Research Network, 2025
The linguistic relativity hypothesis has focused on the influence of grammar in language on speakers' cognition. Previous studies show that speakers of languages with grammatical number (e.g., English) are more aware of the number of objects. Additionally, recent studies reveal that bilinguals who speak languages with different grammatical…
