It doesn't last if it's not drilled on a regular basis. We know kids who grew up in a tri-lingual household. She spoke English, Spanish and French. He spoke English and Spanish. The kids grew up speaking all three. But once they went to school (here in the US), they stopped speaking the other two and only spoke English. They can still understand French and Spanish, though.
