It includes socio-psycholinguistics (social status and prestige of the languages in contact, official status of minority language, symmetrical\/bi- or pluridirectional or asymmetrical\/unidirectional kind of contact, language mode, claimed CS practice, explicit attitudes and acceptability judgements) and lexicalist variables.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction – Language contact phenomena and code-switching – Main approaches to CS – Bilingualism and code-switching in childhood – The Selvaggi-Plastina Integrated Model of Plurilingual Code-Switching (IMPCS) – The empirical study – Case study 1: Calabrese Minorities – Case study 2: Italophone Minority of Istra – Case study 3: Italian-English Bilingual Children – Plurilingual code-switching: a comparison across minority communities – References – Appendices – Index\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Lang AG, Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51043664560471,"sku":"9783034326636","price":49.18,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783034326636.jpg?v=1750959044","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/plurilingual-code-switching-between-standard-and-local-varieties-a-socio-psycholinguistic-approach-9783034326636","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
