F. Definition of Terms

1. Code switching M cCormick 1994: 581 explains that “the term „code switching‟ refers to the juxtaposition of elements from two or more languages or dialects. The statement above is also supported by Valdes and Fallis 1977, as cited by Duran, code-switching means the use of two languages concurrently or interchangeably. According to Auer 1998, code-switching relates to, and sometimes indexes social-group membership in bilingual and multilingual communities. Some sociolinguists describe the relationships between code-switching behaviors and class, ethnicity, and other social positions.
