Conversational Strategies in a Bilingual Context: Code-Switching in L'Anse-à-Canards, Newfoundland

Abstract

The methodology employed in a study-in-progress of French-English code-switching in L'Anse-à-Canards, Newfoundland is outlined and preliminary results are presented. They reveal high frequency of occurrence of certain code-switch types as well as within-group variation which may be related to social networks and individual social histories.
