DEFINITION OF CODE-SWITCHING
Code is a verbal
component that can be as small as a morpheme or as comprehensive and complex as
the entire system of language.
Bokamba (1989)
defines: “Code-switching is the mixing of words, phrases and sentences from two
distinct grammatical (sub)systems across sentence boundaries within the same
speech event… code-mixing is the embedding of various linguistic units such as
affixes (bound morphemes), words (unbound morphemes), phrases and clauses from
a cooperative activity where the participants, in order to in infer what is
intended, must reconcile what they hear with what they understand.”
TYPES
OF CODE-SWITCHING
There are many kinds
of code-switching. They are:
ð Intersentential code-switching is the type of code
switching when the language switch is done at sentence
boundaries. This is seen most often between fluent bilingual speakers. In intrasentential
code-switching, the shift is done in the middle of a sentence, with no interruptions,
hesitations, or pauses indicating a shift. It often happens within one sentence
or even a one phrase. The speaker is usually unaware of the switch, until after
the fact, and for example, you have to find a kalo pedi (good guy) and marry
him. (English-Greek)
ð Code-changing, is characterized by fluent intrasentential shifts, transferring
focus from one language to another. It is motivated by situational and
stylistic factors, and the conscious nature of the switch between two languages
is emphasized (Lipski, 1985, p. 12).
ð Tag- switching
involves the insertion
of a tag in one language into an utterance that is otherwise entirely in the
other language.
FUNCTION OF CODE SWITCHING
ü In bilingual community
settings will briefly be explained by giving a sample authentic conversation
which will help the reader deduce ideas about its possible applications in
educational contexts.
ü In teachers’ classroom
discourse will be introduced with its aspects as: topic switch, affective
functions, and repetitive functions.
ü Code switching will shift to
students’ code switching by introducing some basic functional perspectives as:
equivalence, floor holding, reiteration, and conflict control.
ü Weak and strong sides of code
switching in foreign language classrooms will be discussed with a critical
approach.
