說到“移民”這個事兒，很多人都聽過“第一代移民”和“第二代移民”這兩種說法。前者說明他本人就是移民，而且是成年后移居國外的；而后者則是前者在國外所生的后代，也就是生長在國外的華裔。不過，還有一類“第1.5代移民” 你聽說過嗎？
The term 1.5 generation or 1.5G refers to people who immigrate to a new country at a young age. They earn the label the "1.5 generation" because they bring with them characteristics from their home country but continue their assimilation and socialization in the new country. Their identity is thus a combination of new and old culture and tradition.

Depending on the age of immigration, the community into which they settle, extent of education in their native country, and other factors, 1.5 generation individuals will identify with their countries of origin to varying degrees. However, their identification will be affected by their experiences growing up in the new country. 1.5G individuals are often bilingual and find it easier to be assimilated into the local culture and society than people who immigrated as adults.
