Our aim here is to investigate reading in a foreign language from a multilingual perspective. Much research has focused on first- and second-language reading, especially the important role played by strategy deployment in helping readers to make meaning from texts in different languages.

Compared the way in which learners of French as a Second Language (L2) and English as a First Language (L1) established the coherence of a specific text.

Marschall, Matthias – Travaux Neuchatelois de Linguistique (Tranel), 1998
A study investigated the acquisition of grammar-based reading routines in both first and second languages (L1 and L2). The objective was to determine whether routine integration of grammatical information to construct a semantic representation of the text is a matter of general cognitive development or language-specific learning. Subjects were…
