There is a growing body of research on the effects of bilingualism in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Across studies, there is now broad consensus that exposure to two (or more) languages does not have detrimental effects on either language development or core autistic traits. Instead, bilingualism can even prove helpful in some domains. At the same time, research in this area faces important challenges, including how to capture the considerable heterogeneity within ASD, the wide r

This issue of RANAM (Recherches Anglaises et Nord-Américaines) aims at exploring the expression of volition, wish and/or desire in English, in all its manifestations. Several levels of analysis can therefore be of interest: lexical, phraseological, syntactic, semantic, pragmatic. It will thus be possible to study the various existing linguistic forms expressing volition and its degrees from a lexical and/or phraseological point of view: lexical words such as the three given in the title, but
