"There is (almost) 0 knowledge about CLIL" - CLIL på andre sprog end engelsk
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2021-12)Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) findes kun i meget begrænset omfang på andre sprog end engelsk.

Moreover, a wide variety of Norwegian dialects allow deviations from the standard V2 word order in ... -
