Book Synopsis Japanese/English Code-switching by : Miwa Nishimura
Download or read book Japanese/English Code-switching written by Miwa Nishimura and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1997 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Code-switching, the use of two or more languages in discourse, is the norm in many bilingual and multilingual communities. This book examines Japanese/English code-switching from a syntactic and a functional perspective, using data obtained from the Niseis, second generation Japanese Canadians in the Toronto Japanese community. Previous researchers have postulated that code-switching could not occur between two languages with different word order, but this book shows that this is not the case. The functions of the Niseis' code-switching in conversation is also explored.
Book Synopsis OV and VO variation in code-switching by : Shim Ji Young
Download or read book OV and VO variation in code-switching written by Shim Ji Young and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is intended as a contribution to the field of bilingualism from a generative syntax perspective at a variety of levels. It investigates code-switching between Korean and English and also between Japanese and English, which exhibit several interesting features. Due to their canonical word order differences, Korean and Japanese being SOV (Subject-Object-Verb) and English SVO (Subject-Verb-Object), a code-switched sentence between Korean/Japanese and English can take, in principle, either OV or VO order, to which little attention has been paid in the literature. On the contrary, word order is one of the most extensively discussed topics in generative syntax, especially in the Principles and Parameter’s approach (P&P) where various proposals have been made to account of various order patterns of different languages. By taking the generative view that linguistic variation is due to variation in the domain of functional categories rather than lexical roots (e.g. Borer 1984; Chomsky 1995), this monograph investigates word order variation in Korean-English and Japanese-English code-switching, with particular attention to the relative placement of the predicate (verb) and its complement (object) in two contrasting word orders, OV and VO, which was tested against Korean-English and Japanese-English bilingual speakers’ introspective judgments. The results provide strong evidence indicating that the distinction between functional and lexical verbs plays a major role in deriving different word orders (OV and VO, respectively) in Korean-English and Japanese-English code-switching, which supports the hypothesis that parametric variation is attributed to differences in the features of a functional category in the lexicon, as assumed in minimalist syntax. In particular, the explanation pursued in this monograph is based on feature inheritance, a syntactic derivational process, which was proposed in recent developments the Minimalist Program. The monograph shows that by studying diverse and creative word order patterns of code-switching, we are at a better disposal to understand how languages are parameterized similarly or differently in a given domain, which is the very topic that generative linguists have pursued for a long time.

Book Synopsis The Cambridge Handbook of Linguistic Code-switching by : Barbara E. Bullock
Download or read book The Cambridge Handbook of Linguistic Code-switching written by Barbara E. Bullock and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Code-switching - the alternating use of two languages in the same stretch of discourse by a bilingual speaker - is a dominant topic in the study of bilingualism and a phenomenon that generates a great deal of pointed discussion in the public domain. This handbook provides the most comprehensive guide to this bilingual phenomenon to date. Drawing on empirical data from a wide range of language pairings, the leading researchers in the study of bilingualism examine the linguistic, social and cognitive implications of code-switching in up-to-date and accessible survey chapters. The Cambridge Handbook of Linguistic Code-switching will serve as a vital resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, as a wide-ranging overview for linguists, psychologists and speech scientists and as an informative guide for educators interested in bilingual speech practices.
Book Synopsis Routledge Handbook of Japanese Sociolinguistics by : Patrick Heinrich
Download or read book Routledge Handbook of Japanese Sociolinguistics written by Patrick Heinrich and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-05 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting new approaches and results previously inaccessible in English, the Routledge Handbook of Japanese Sociolinguistics provides an insight into the language and society of contemporary Japan from a fresh perspective. While it was once believed that Japan was a linguistically homogenous country, research over the past two decades has shown Japan to be a multilingual and sociolinguistically diversifying country. Building on this approach, the contributors to this handbook take this further, combining Japanese and western approaches alike and producing research which is relevant to twenty-first century societies. Organised into five parts, the sections covered include: The languages and language varieties of Japan. The multilingual ecology. Variation, style and interaction. Language problems and language planning. Research overviews. With contributions from across the field of Japanese sociolinguistics, this handbook will prove very useful for students and scholars of Japanese Studies, as well as sociolinguists more generally.

Book Synopsis English-Japanese Code-Switching and Formulaic Language by : Kazuhiko Namba
Download or read book English-Japanese Code-Switching and Formulaic Language written by Kazuhiko Namba and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to identify the structural processing which underlies code-switching (CS) through the analysis of naturalistic data collected from two English and Japanese speaking siblings. In bilingual interaction, alternating between two languages, even within sentences, is a common phenomenon. When CS occurs, how do the grammars of the two languages influence each other? The data from this longitudinal case study is analyzed using the Matrix Language Frame Model along with the frameworks of alternation and formulaic language. This hybrid structural approach opens a window to language processing in general as well as CS. This book will: be a useful resource for researchers interested in the structural aspect of CS; contribute to the bigger picture of the nature of CS with typologically distant languages; serve as an introduction to the MLF model for students of bilingualism; provide an authentic source of bilingual children's language and a lot of contextual information; be used as an introduction to the framework of formulaic language.

Book Synopsis The Bilingual Mental Lexicon by : Longxing Wei
Download or read book The Bilingual Mental Lexicon written by Longxing Wei and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes the Bilingual Lemma Activation Model as a method for exploring the nature and activity of the bilingual mental lexicon in both speech production and language acquisition. This model claims that the bilingualâ (TM)s two languages are not equally activated in code-switching; one playing a crucial role in grammatical frame building, and the other being activated at a lexical level due to psycholinguistic reasons. To test this model, the book analyzes bilingual speech data from naturally occurring intrasentential code-switching instances involving various language pairs. A second claim of this model is that code-switching naturally occurs because certain lemmas underlying some particular lexical items stored in the bilingual mental lexicon are language-specific, and such lemmas are in contact in bilingual speech. To further test this model, second language acquisition data are analyzed here to describe and explain sources of language transfer at the level of abstract lexical structure. Thus, from some psycholinguistic perspectives, this model views bilingual speech involving code-switching and interlanguage performance data as predictable outcomes of bilingual systems in contact. This book will appeal to graduate students and researchers in both theoretical and applied linguistics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her examination of Japanese-English bilingualism in Toronto, Nishimura (1995b) demonstrated that second-generation Japanese-Canadians varied their speech dependent on the audience they were addressing. According to her, the Japanese-Canadians spoke primarily in English to fellow second-generation speakers, while maintaining conversations in Japanese with those who had spent their formative years in Japan. However, when addressing audiences composed of both groups, they switched back and forth evenly between the two languages. Following research done by Woolard (1989) on the effects of societal influences on language, the state of the Japanese-Canadians can be related to the breakup of the ethnic enclaves in which they had lived prior to the onset of World War II, also described by Nishimura (1995a). In contrast, this study examines the language used by more recently arrived Japanese-American speakers, whose families had not undergone the political instability of earlier generations. Three groups of these postwar Japanese-English speakers, each consisting of one native speaker and two Japanese-American heritage speakers, provided the data for the study via conversations that were recorded during an internet call. These speakers came from a variety of educational backgrounds, and often spent at least some time in both Japan and the U.S. Following Myers-Scotton (1993), this study claims the diversity of parts of speech being used inside of one clause is a reliable metric that can be used in order to categorize a bilingual's speech. Using this method, the study finds that all of Nishimura's forms of bilingual speech are still being used among contemporary Japanese-Americans: a mostly Japanese version, a mostly English version, and a version in which the two languages are more evenly combined. The first two variants consist of the primary language with the occasional use of mostly single words from the other language, while the third contains a greater variety of grammatical items from both languages, and even grammatical overlaps that are not easily explainable in either language. Lastly, unlike the second-generation Japanese-Canadians from pre-war Japanese ethnic neighborhoods, who switched equally between Japanese and English when speaking to native speakers and fellow Japanese Canadians, the postwar second-generation Japanese-Americans in this study use primarily English in the same contexts. This occurs in spite of a consistently high opinion concerning the use of Japanese as held by the postwar speakers. Although the existence of the three variants of bilingual speech is confirmed among postwar Japanese-Americans, the choice of which variant to use is not dependent on the generation the speaker belongs to, but more concretely on the extent to which the speakers themselves were educated in Japan.
