Conclusion

Abstract

The short conclusion reminds readers that translanguaging extends our traditional definitions of language and bilingualism and disrupts traditional boundaries; and although important in mediating complex social and cognitive activities, it is seldom used in schools. The conclusion reminds readers of the potential of translanguaging as a way to produce trans-spaces and trans-subjects capable of transforming subjectivities, social and cognitive structures and the sociopolitical order, as well as to liberate language and bilingualism from the societal constraints in which it has been held by monolingual and monoglossic ideologies.
