Annotation

This inquiry collated the foreign language anxiety met with by monolingual and bilingual tertiary students in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic who were learning English as a Foreign Language. The monolingual students were learning English as their L2, while the bilingual students were learning it as their L3. The findings point out positive multilingual effects in linguistic self-confidence, which could be useful in decreasing foreign language anxiety amid multilingual individuals.
