Bilingual Strategies: The Social Functions of Code-Switching

Peer reviewed

Scotton, Carol Myers; Ury, William – Linguistics, 1977

A study of code-switching, the use of two or more linguistic varieties in the same interaction. Code-switching as interpreted in this study is a meta-interactional cue which is activated to signal a change in direction of the interaction. Such a response to the interaction process is considered significant. (AMH)
