Contact and Language Change: Using the Present to Explain the Past1
Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.Abstract Although we may know the outcome of language changes that could have resulted from language contact in the past, we are unlikely to know how and why these changes occurred unless we also know about the individual speakers who came into contact and the nature of their interactions—information that all too often is impossible to uncover.
