From interlingual influences among multilingual speakers

Summary/Abstract: The recently changing socio-economic and political European reality largely influenced the intensification of economic, technological and scientific exchange between European countries, among which there is also Poland. New migration opportunities of societies for earning and tourism purposes and the new language policy entailed changes in the linguistic model of a contemporary European. The modern European is a person not only bilingual, but fluent in several languages other than their own. As the statistics show, monolingual people are a minority in today’s world, and the phenomenon of multilingualism is widely regarded as the norm. Polish pupils on the first and second stage of education and Polish students, in line with the trend of language education, also have to study foreign languages, becoming part of a linguistic model of a contemporary European. In the mind of bi- / multilingual speakers in the process of acquiring the target language there occur interactions between non-target languages, affecting the efficiency of the process of acquiring the target language. The article is an attempt to classify and describe interlingual influences taking place in the mind of the students of Slavic studies at KUL – students of Russian studies with Polish being their native language, using and acquiring a new foreign language or languages (L2 - Russian, L3 – Ukrainian).
