Abstract:

The goal of the present study was to identify, describe and account for
bilingual (Russian-Hebrew) varieties spoken in the Russian immigrant community
in Israel. In order to achieve this complex goal, an interdisciplinary
approach was chosen based on a combination of linguistic, psychological and
sociological disciplines. The analysis of bilingual data has shown that there
were three main types of bilingual varieties in use. The varieties were
distinguished on the basis of the dominant patterns of language mixing
(showing the evidence of a general shift from insertional to alternational CS)
as well as of the directionality of CS. The three main speech styles were
partly related to their speakers’ generational memberships. However, the
differences in speech styles were not so much the function of generational
affiliations, as of the actual linguistic behavior in the immigrants’ social
lives. The variations within generational cohorts were better accounted for in
terms of these speakers’ identities, attitudes and habitual language choices.
