pluri linguingualism
more competences
or
more competence?

If we talk about a plurilingual person we are not just talking about someone who can use more than one language – we are also adopting a different image, one in which several languages and several cultures interact and end up creating a global, complex competence - . a competence, which includes the L1 or the L1s. This competence changes and evolves as the person goes through new linguistic and cultural experiences.
