چکیده
The aim of this paper is to investigate the rules and constraints of code-switching (CS) in Hindi-English mixed language data. In this paper, we’ll discuss how we collected the mixed language corpus.

The code-switching cases in the corpus are discussed and the reasons for code-switching are explained.

متن کاملsAT k A Unified Computational Lexicon for Hindi-English Code-Switching
We investigate how lexicons of languages in contact are merged to generate a fused lexicon for the code-mixed variety. Using the HPSG formalism, we develop computational lexicons for Hindi and English, and explore how these can be merged to obtain a fused-lect lexicon. We consider the HindiEnglish Code Switching variety (HECS), a stable variety that has resulted from contact between these langu...
