Overview

This essay is about my personal training in multilingual acquisition and learning.

My own experience with “The way I have learned six languages” (French, Arabic, English, German, Italian and Spanish) in various ways and at different epochs in my life, shows that we, multilinguals, already possess a linguistic capital which helps us learning a new language especially when it belongs to the same language family as the one or those we already know.
