NEUROPSYCHOPHYSIOLOGICAL FUNDAMENTALS OF FUNCTIONALLY – ASYMMETRIC BILINGUALISM
The paper introduces research on the cognitive conditions that form a functionally-asymmetric bilingualism (exemplified by a Buryat-Russian bicode). They are as follows: a separate location of phonological sequences and corresponding semantics, cognitive competition between the two codes and cell system genesis. The external indicator that signals for a would-be regress start of a first language is fossilization.
