Annotation

This study explores cultural affiliation, identity and emotional expressiveness as related to language aspects in multilingual Third Culture Kids (TCKs) aged 18–30 years. Interviewees employed languages to define themselves and others and women were commonly more receptive to dissimilarities in cultural interaction as to language use and emotional articulacy.
