{"product_id":"9780262027892","title":"Grammatical Theory and Bilingual Codeswitching","description":"\u003cp\u003eCodeswitching is the alternate use of two or more languages among bilingual interlocutors. It is distinct from borrowing, which involves the phonological and morphological integration of a word from one language into another.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Codeswitching involves the mixing of phonologically distinctive elements into a single utterance: \u003ci\u003e Mi hermano bought some ice cream.\u003c\/i\u003e This volume examines the grammatical properties of languages mixed in this way, focusing on cases of language mixing within a sentence. It considers the grammar of codeswitching from a variety of perspectives, offering a collection of theoretically significant work by the leading researchers in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach contribution investigates a particular grammatical phenomenon as it relates to bilingual codeswitching data, mostly from a Minimalist perspective. The contributors first offer detailed grammatical accounts of codeswitching, then consider phonological and morphological issues that arise from the question of whether codeswitching is permitted within words. Contributors additionally investigate the semantics and syntax of codeswitching and psycholinguistic issues in bilingual language processing. The data analyzed include codeswitching in Spanish-English,Korean-English, German-Spanish, Hindi-English, and Amerindian languages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributors\u003c\/b\u003eShoba Bandi-Rao, Rakesh M.
