Language Contact

Mittwoch, 19.03.2025

Language contact is found on both individual and societal level. The linguistic performance of multilingual speakers is typically affected by the languages used with resulting convergence in grammatical structures. In multilingual societies, similar convergence of linguistic systems is found. The results of long-term language contacts range from complete language shift and language death to Sprachbund equilibrium. The course will survey a number of language contact situations. Students will consult the relevant literature and use printed and electronic resources in search for manifestations of language contact and their linguistic and social explanations.
