Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -8) When bilinguals talk, do they mentally translate from L1 to L2? Translating from L1 to L2 is mainly found in the early stages of second language acquisition. When people become bilingual, i.e. use two or more languages in everyday life, they no longer translate or only do so on rare occasions.

Detailed explanation-2: -Bilingualism is defined as a speaker’s ability to use two languages for communication. Due to the complexity of its nature, the study of bilingualism relies on several fields within linguistics, anthropology, psychology, neuroscience, and education.

Detailed explanation-3: -When children are exposed to additional languages at age three or older, they are considered sequential or successive bilinguals. Sequential bilinguals differ from receptive bilinguals in that they have had little to no opportunity to build receptive skills prior to age three.
