This is the presentation I had prepared for my paper on bilingualism (I've featured it in this blog too). Despite focused on the individual implications of such phenomena, I've added some illustrations on more practical daily life issues, such as traffic signs, politics, and humour in several European countries. The selection was based on proximity factors for the original audience, so put those thoughts to rest, eheheh, there's no Eurocentric raving here... in fact I tried to present examples taken from less known bilingual communities! Can You identify them?
