Abstract
Description
The article deals with the problem of the influence of bilingualism and multilingualism on the structure of the brain in the aspect of studying advanced methods of neuroimaging, which is especially important for children from international families. The paramount importance of the method of learning a second language and the age of learning languages is emphasized. The author gives an example and, based on the analysis, comes to the conclusion that for the formation of bilingualism, a clear separation of the language of communication at home and at school / kindergarten is necessary, when two full-fledged language environments that are vital for the child remain for a long time.
