Opplysninger | An emerging multilingual repertoire -- Societal multilingualism -- Acquiring and maintaining a bilingual repertoire -- Crossing the boundaries : codeswitching in conversation -- The replication of linguistic 'matter' -- Lexical borrowing -- Grammatical and phonological borrowing -- Converging structures : pattern replication -- Contact languages -- Towards a functional theory of language contact. - "Manifestations of language contact are found in a great variety of domains, including language acquisition, language processing and production, conversation and discourse, social functions of language and language policy, typology and language change, and more. This makes it a special challenge to compile an overview of the subject. Most introductory works devoted to contact linguistics have hitherto chosen to specialise either in the individual-synchronic aspects of bilingualism, or in structural-diachronic aspects of contact-induced language change. This book introduces an integrated theory of language contact, within which the study of these various domains can be bound together"--
