Title
The native speaker and the mother tongue
Abstract
This article presents a historical account of the role and function in linguistic theorising of the concepts ‘‘native speaker” and ‘‘mother tongue”, and serves to introduce a number of articles (Language Sciences vol. 32 no. 6) raising questions about various aspects of the idealised monolingualism that underlies much modern linguistics.
