This book explores the phenomenon of code-switching within the field of child bilingualism from both linguistic and sociolinguistic perspectives. Based on collected data from Kurdish-German pre-school bilingual children in Austria, this empirical study aims at giving an analysis of linguistic and extra-linguistic factors that constrain child code-switching. The book shows specific interest in practices of code switching and mixing as displayed by Kurdish subjects of the study and in how far these can be sufficiently explained by existing models of (adult) bilingual language behavior. The results clearly show that code-switching can be related to the identity and characteristics of the speakers or to aspects of their social life, and that it can be subconsciously used to manage conflict when different languages are associated with different roles in a community.Country/Region of Manufacture: CHBook Series: Europaeische Hochschulschriften / European University Studies / Publications Universitaires EuropéennesGenre: Language & ReferenceRelease Year: 2014 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
