It was carried out with the primary aim being, to distinguish the social factors motivating the bilingual's code-switching and to establish the linguistic constraints on the code-switching. This study was carried out with the aid of a preliminary 4 weeks of field observation of participants in different settings and interactions followed up with 4 hours and 20 minutes of tare recordings of naturally occurring conversation between participants. A detailed analysis of the recorded conversations was carried out to establish the nature of Isekiri-English bilingual codeswitching;. Constraints on the switching was attributed to both linguistic and social factors. From this exercise, the varieties of code-switching, the matrix language, word classes and categories of items, the grammatical rules and the number of grammars involved in the code-switching situation were determined. Finally, suggestions were given as to the possibility of establishing a universal grammar for code-switching by comparing the findings in this investigation with those or other people who have worked in this area of language contact. 2023-05-13T16:30:15Z 2023-05-13T16:30:15Z 1985 Thesis Adokpaye, A.T(1985) https://ir.oauife.edu.ng/123456789/5264 en application/pdf Obafemi Awolowo University |
