We have investigated this phenomenon in a formal or computational framework which consists

Some structural and social correlates of single word intrasentential code-switching in Jersey Norman French

Journal of French Language Studies, 2005
This article investigates single word intrasentential code-switching in obsolescent Jersey Norman French.

On the basis of the findings, it is suggested
