4.6 Main issues

- Language mixing:
-- During the first three years
-- Intensity:
--- Gawlitzek-Maiwald and Tracy (1996): 2;1-2;3: 20 %; 2;9-4;3: 4 %
--- Itani-Adams (2013): 1;11-4;10: 2 %
-- Many reasons:
--- Comeau, Genesee und Lapaquette (2003): language mixing of parents directly related to intensity of mixing in children
-- 4 types: word-internal, utterance-internal mixing, utterance-external, cross-linguistic influence
