双语让儿童更有创造力

In contrast, Sardinian is not widely taught in schools on the Italian island and has a largely oral tradition, which means there is currently no standardised form of the language.

与之对比，撒丁语在意大利小岛撒丁岛上并没有在学校里得到广泛讲授，大多是靠口头传授的，也就是说，现在这种语言还没有进行标准化。

Dr Fraser Lauchlan, an Honorary Lecturer at the University of Strathclyde's School of Psychological Sciences & Health, led the research. It was conducted with colleagues at the University of Cagliari in Sardinia, where he is a Visiting Professor.

弗雷泽·劳克伦博士是斯特拉斯克莱德大学心理科学与健康学院的名誉讲师，他是该项研究的负责人。该研究是他在撒丁岛卡利亚里大学做客座教授时和那里的同事一起进行的。

Dr Lauchlan said: "Bilingualism is now largely seen as being beneficial to children but there remains a view that it can be confusing, and so potentially detrimental to them.

劳克伦博士说："现在基本上都认为双语对孩子有益，但是仍有观点认为，双语会让孩子混乱，对他们有着潜在的不利影响。"

"Our study has found that it can have demonstrable benefits, not only in language but in arithmetic, problem solving and enabling children to think creatively. We also assessed the children's vocabulary, not so much for their knowledge of words as their understanding of them. Again, there was a marked difference in the level of detail and richness in description from the bilingual pupils.
