This contribution examines cross-linguistic influence in the acquisition of English as an additional language, focusing on multilingual heritage speakers. Moreover, we take up the notoriously troublesome issue of multilingual advantages. We insist on the importance of language dominance for cross-linguistic influence and the methodological differentiation between mutually exclusive groups of multilingual speakers.
