Albeit some research published in languages other than English may be quoted in multilingualism research, multilingualism as a manifest research practice is mostly lacking in multilingualism study. Multilingualism research mainly establishes multilingualism as a topic to be inquired from a view outside the multilingualism phenomenon itself and normalises monolingualism as the usual academic practice form within the English-speaking world. Thus in the multilingualism research site a monolingual habitus prevails, which constitutes an epistemic dilemma for the field.
