Peer Review
edit1. I found that the article did a good job of organizing and separating its contents. Overall the article was well written and covered a substantial amount of information pertaining to Carmen Silva-Corvalán’s studies regarding bilingualism. In addition to bilingualism, I liked how the group focused on certain selected research which was the extension of estar. I found the article all in all easy to read and it made sense and flowed well. I was impressed with the amount of information that was presented simply throughout the article. They covered a lot of areas without adding too much information.
2. What could be added is the citations for all of the articles and some more minor details could be added for more information on each article. All the citations are needed for each of the articles that are being discussed. Some more details to expand on each article a bit would be beneficial for understanding each study properly as well.
3. The most important thing the author can do to improve the article would be to work on redundancy. For example, the line, ‘“Carmen Silva-Corvalán published a book about her studies of bilingual language acquisition called “Bilingual Language Acquisition: Spanish and English in the First Six Years”’ could be simplified. In addition, the line, “learning more about language loss and how a language can die” is repetitive as well. Small changes like that would be beneficial for this article.
4. For our topic, there was nothing that we could necessarily use, just because we are doing an autobiography. But, there were similarities, Anne Fernald and Silvia-Corvana both studied language acquisition. Although, Fernald mostly studied monolingual children and Silvia-Convana studied bilingual children. They both watched language develop in similar ways. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Senecaa97 (talk • contribs) 21:25, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
