Dear Abigail,
    I assume that you are saying that the major language in the interaction is English, perhaps because the book is written in English, but that people are occasionally switching to Welsh.  There are guidelines in section 16.1 of the CHAT manual about how to code this.

I live in Wales so a lot of my storybook reading interactions have interjections in Welsh that I still want to code as part of the interactions e.g. da iawn = very good, child will often count in Welsh, parent will respond with "beth?" instead of "what?".
