Abstract

Historically, the Russian language has become a common means of communication in the Russian Federation. The Republic of Crimea is a place where the population is represented by a multinational community. At that, some areas are densely populated with a single nation, where children speak the Tatar language, that is, are essentially everyday bilinguals. The most characteristic type of bilingualism in Russia is the national Russian language, which is learned both through training and direct communication with the Russian-speaking population. Early everyday bilingualism is common when the assimilation of the native and Russian languages develops almost in parallel. The authors have received new information on the peculiarities of the acquisition of Russian and native Tatar languages in primary school children raised in a multilingual environment. It is proved that speech therapy examination of speech disorders in bilingual children should be conducted in two languages. The article presents developed recommendations for teaching bilingual children in a Russian-language school, depending on the degree of proficiency in Russian and the presence of speech disorders.

Summary

Introduction

There are few places left on the globe where the population speaks only their native language, mainly because of the mass media, and especially television, penetrating everywhere, transmitting flows of foreign-language information. Foreign languages, and often several of them, are included in the minimum school curricula in many countries. The language of education in a particular country differs from the pupils’ native language. Bilingualism is of particular interest for speech therapy, since it often causes a specific kind of speech mistakes in the Russian language due to both the peculiarities of the. The factor of bilingualism for children with speech pathology is burdensome, which cannot but affect the development of speech, cognitive, and, educational activities [1–5]. The relevance of the present study is due to the existing contradictions between the need for practice in an adequate assessment of the speech status in bilingual children at primary school, and the lack of appropriate theoretically grounded research and correction methods of speech pathology
