This group of im- migrants has become the fifth largest ethnic group in Taiwan. Based on data collected from questionnaires, this study uses a bidimensional model to investigate to what extent these New Taiwanese have been acculturated, respectively, in the domains of culture identification, lan- guage ability, and language behavior. It is found that they are in the process of integration. They strongly accept dual ethnic identity, maintain their mother tongues but also acquire good Man- darin and Taiwanese, and are not separated or marginalized. These results show that Taiwan is a free and democratic country in which multilingualism and multiculturalism are well practiced and accepted.
