Abstract:

In a world of increasing migration and technological progress, multilingual
communication has become the rule rather than the exception. This book
reflects the growing interest in understanding communication between
members of different linguistic groups and contains a collection of
original papers by members of the German Science Foundation's research
center on multilingualism at Hamburg University and by international
experts, offering an overview of the most important research fields in
multilingual communication. The book is divided into four sections dealing
with interpreting and translation, code-switching in various institutional
contexts, two important strands of multilingual communication: rapport and
politeness, and contrastive studies of Japanese and German grammar and
discourse. The editors' preface presents the relevant theoretical and
methodological background to the issues discussed in this book and points
to useful directions for future research.
