Linguistic Theory, Language Contact, and Modern Hindustani: The Three Sides of a Linguistic Story (American University Studies)
Released: Dec 01, 1995
Format: Hardcover, 154 pages
Description:
This book raises some important questions about formal linguistics and functionalist sociolinguistics when they encompass the same subject matter, linguistic borrowing and code-switching/mixing. These questions arise in the context of formalist and functionalist accounts of language contact and are tested here against some interesting Hindustani-English contact facts from India. The test reveals what these paradigms contribute to our understanding of language contact (and language in general) and precisely where they seem to go wrong.
