balanced bilingualism

Balanced bilingualism refers to a situation where an individual has proficiency in two languages that is relatively equal across various skills like speaking, understanding, reading, and writing. This means they can switch smoothly between languages and use both effectively in different contexts, without one language predominating over the other. Achieving this balance often requires substantial exposure and practice in both languages from an early age or through deliberate learning efforts, resulting in a high level of competence in both languages simultaneously.
