This dissertation features three studies on the communication skills of bilingual children (French-English bilinguals aged 2.5 and 3 years from the Montreal area). Studies 1 and 2 explored these children's ability to make appropriate language choices by studying their responsiveness to two types of cues: The first study investigated whether children's language choice is influenced by their interlocutor's code-mixing; the second study examined whether children change their language in response to their interlocutor's requests for clarification following the children's use of the inappropriate language. The children demonstrated that they were capable of making on-line adjustments in their language choice in response to both types of cues, thereby showing that sensitivity to cues for language change is part of bilingual children's communicative competence from a young age. Study 3 compared bilingual and monolingual children's responses to requests for clarification following breakdowns in communication due to problematic aspects of their utterances such as speaking too softly or mispronouncing words. The findings revealed no significant differences between the bilingual and monolingual children's responses and suggest that the acquisition of conversational repair skills is not influenced by the simultaneous acquisition of two languages. Together, these three studies contribute to the understanding of the skills underlying children's ability to make appropriate language choices and suggest that the unique demands of bilingual interpersonal communication do not interfere with the acquisition of more general communication skills.
