Abstract:

Heritage languages, such as the Turkish varieties spoken in Berlin or the
Spanish used in Los Angeles, are non-dominant languages, often with little
prestige. Their speakers also speak the dominant language of the country they
live in. Often heritage languages undergo changes due to their special status.
They have received a lot of scholarly attention and provide a link between
academic concerns and educational issues. This book takes a language contact
perspective: we consider heritage languages from the perspective of their
history, their structural properties, and their interaction with other
surrounding languages.
