After following a link from [[multilingualism]], I realized that there is no article on code-switching. Therefore, I thought that such an article would be an important contribution. I started to type what I know about code-switching mainly drawing upon my previous research which resulted in an article and a conference presentation. My thesis is related to the phenomenon as well. I invite all authors and editors of linguistics workgroup to help develop the article. I did not make use of the content from Wikipedia, but this does not necesserily mean that we will not do that. Thanks for your contributions. [[User:Olcay Sert|Olcay Sert]]

===Switching or mixing? Is the example clear?===
Consider the definition given:
"Code-switching may occur inter-sententially or intra-sententially. If the latter is considered, the phenomenon is called code-mixing. In other words, if the switch is within sentences or word boundaries, it is code-mixing. Contrary to this, if the switch is across sentence boundaries, the phenomenon under discussion is code-switching."
(1)
'''''Otto: I am really very müde (tired). (English-German code-mixing)'''''
Code is changed within the sentence, i.e. it is mixing
(2)
'''''Jeff: Ahmet, Is this your kitap? (English-Turkish code-switching)'''''
'''''Ahmet: Hayır. But that is my defter.'''''
Code is changed within the sentence and across the boundries so the example is mixed. Suggestion. relabel the sentences or change the example. For example:
'''Ahmet, Is this your kitap? (code mixing)'''
'''Hayır. But that is my notebook. (code switching)'''

Switching or mixing? Is the example clear?

Consider the definition given: "Code-switching may occur inter-sententially or intra-sententially. If the latter is considered, the phenomenon is called code-mixing. In other words, if the switch is within sentences or word boundaries, it is code-mixing. Contrary to this, if the switch is across sentence boundaries, the phenomenon under discussion is code-switching."

(1)

Otto: I am really very müde (tired). (English-German code-mixing)

Code is changed within the sentence, i.e. it is mixing

(2)

Jeff: Ahmet, Is this your kitap? (English-Turkish code-switching)

Ahmet: Hayır. But that is my defter.

Code is changed within the sentence and across the boundries so the example is mixed. Suggestion. relabel the sentences or change the example. For example:

Ahmet, Is this your kitap? (code mixing)

Hayır. But that is my notebook. (code switching)
