INTERLINGUAL TRANSFER IN WRITING IN GERMAN

In today's global and transmodern world, multilingualism is becoming the norm, and issues related to it are treated as key to the theory and practice of language teaching and learning. The work of Dr. Joanna Boratyńska-Sumara, which refers to interlingual transfer in the process of developing writing skills in a third language, is therefore in line with modern and innovative glottodidactic research. It is an interesting and important study, mainly due to the presented results of empirical research, which are worth disseminating, although it should be emphasized that the publication also has theory-building potential. Both the topicality of the issues contained in the book and its substantive value, which includes the mechanisms of transfer within three languages: Polish (L1), English (L2) and German (L3), suggest that this publication will be of interest to researchers dealing with multilingualism and foreign language teachers. The monograph is a valuable study in the field of multilingualism and language transfer, confirms the Author's in-depth knowledge of these areas of glottodidactics and is an important contribution to applied linguistics research.
