Abstract:

Written by an expert in the field, this study examines the dynamics of
contact between languages in an immigrant context. Michael Clyne
discusses the dynamics of contact with English using data from a wide
range of languages, including German, Dutch, Hungarian, Italian,
Spanish, Croatian and Vietnamese.  Clyne analyzes how and why these
languages change in a country with many immigrants such as Australia,
as well as why some languages survive longer than others.

Contents:

1. Introduction; 2. Dynamics of Language Shift; 3. On Models and Terms;
4. Dynamics of Convergence and Transference; 5. Dynamics of Transversion;
6. Dynamics of Plurilingual Processing; 7. Dynamics of Cultural Values;
8. Towards a Synthesis
