code switching

[Nan Bernstein Ratner]

Hi, for a project involving bilingual children, we want to indicate if an
entire utterance shifts to the secondary language within a conversation
(e.g., in having a conversation in English, shifting an entire utterance to
French). We'd like to be able to investigate fluency issues surrounding
such events. Has anyone developed a code for this that allows efficient
search?
