Abstract:
Ethnolects and ethnolectal variation are new topics in research on
bilingualism and language contact. In Europe, and certainly in the
Netherlands, so far much ethnolectal research has been either ethnographically
oriented, with an interpretive approach, or more descriptive in aiming at an
inventory of features observed in certain ethnolects or ethnic styles. Before
2005, systematic research with linguistic depth of analysis was lacking. To
resolve this, a project was set up in the Netherlands to investigate the
origin, position, and social spread of features of modern Dutch ethnolects
systematically: ‘The Roots of Ethnolects, an Experimental Comparative Study’.
It is based on fieldwork data collected in Amsterdam and Nijmegen with
speakers of Moroccan-Dutch, Turkish-Dutch and ‘white’ Dutch backgrounds. This
dissertation is part of this project and examines seven research questions
using natural speech data. Four questions address the origins of certain
variation patterns. Another research question focuses on style shifting and
the last two deal with the social diffusion of patterns of variation. In this
thesis, the variation in the realization of the phonemes /z/, /εi/, /a:/ and
/ɑ/, as well as the contrast between the latter two was analyzed. The phonemes
were chosen to represent three different kinds of roots: substrate, regional,
and second language acquisition. Also, the co-variation between 17 linguistic
variables was studied. The various studies provide new insights in the
systematic nature of ethnolectal varieties, from both a linguistic and a
social point of view, especially with respect to sociophonological aspects.
