Comprehension of Code-switching by Bilingual Infants
Bilingual children are regularly exposed to code-switching, a linguistic phenomenon consisting of mixing two languages within the same context (Byers-Heinlein, 2013a). Studies have demonstrated that adults are slower to process code-switched language (Grainger & O’regan, 1992), and preliminary studies testing intra-sentential switches (“Where is the chien?”) found similar results with toddlers ...

متن کاملOn the emergence of bilingual code-switching competence*
Code-switching among pro®cient adult bilinguals has been extensively studied, and it is by now universally concluded that intra-sentential code alternations are rule-governed and systematic, displaying dependency relations that re ̄ect the operation of underlying syntactic principles. The central, guiding question to be addressed herein is whether and, if so, how second language learners acquire...
متن کاملThe Dependency Distance Hypothesis for bilingual code-switching
This paper addresses the questions why and where, i.e. in which syntactic dependency relations, multilingual speakers are likely to code-switch. Code-switching (CS) is the linguistic behaviour of producing or comprehending language which is composed from lexical items and grammatical structures from two (or more) languages. This paper proposes that codeswitching is more likely in syntactic rela...
