English phrase to CORRECT:

Similarly, a five-year-old child exposed to two languages will experience language development similarly to children who speak only one language. However, it is quite common for a child who speaks two languages not to have the same strength in each. For example, the child may produce better constructed sentences in one language and use a richer, more precise vocabulary in the other language. The key is to consider all the words and phrases produced in the two languages. In this way one can assess whether the bilingual child's language development is normal. Sometimes the child mixes the two languages in one sentence when he does not know a word in one of the languages. This is a normal phenomenon that is also observed in bilingual adults. It is therefore not necessary to be concerned about it.
