In most investigations of bilingualism as well as in the teaching of a second language, it is normally neglected that L1 dan L2 each consist of a whole array of varieties with certain rules and function depending on the situation of communication, the role of the participant, etc. The present paper claims that language varietes represent an important aspect of the development of bilingualism. This will be shown regarding the situation of migrant children in West Germany. Thus language varieties have also to be taken into account with regard to language teaching (here: German as a second language). Three kinds of competence will be expectes of migrant children with respect to the different varieties: productive, reactive and receptive competence. It will be shown that most of the language varieties-especially situational ones-are connected with cultural development. Therefore, they often show many sociocultural implications for language and behaviour rules. Migrant children who fail in the understanding and use of language varieties often lack the necessary sociocultural knowledge. Intercultural education turns out to be the method of instruction that could lead to better results.
