What is Code-Switching?
Code-Switching refers to the use of two languages (or dialects) within a sentence or discourse. This is a natural process that often occurs between multilingual speakers that share two or more languages in common. Code-switching involves the substitution of a word (or phrase) from one language within a sentence in another language. The ability to produce and comprehend sentences with code-switching is seamless and its use in multilingual communities is widely accepted and often goes unnoticed.
