"三语习得"和"二语习得"相比较,"三语习得"表现出语言耗损与逆转性、相互依赖的复杂性、认知语言的优势性等特征。笔者从"三语习得"特征入手,分析了我国少数民族地区的学生在学习外语过程中存在的问题,提出应发挥少数民族地区的双语优势、注重语言能力的保持和以开展三语语际迁移研究工作来优化该地区的外语教育教学工作。

The writer makes an analysis of the problems in foreign language learning of students in ethnic minority regions by studying the features of trilingual acquisition and points out that in order to improve foreign language teaching in ethnic minority regions, a full play should be given to bilingual advantages, importance should be attached to preservation of language ability and studies should be made on trilingual transfer.
