Beschreibung:

258 Se., Ill. Ein tadelloses Exemplar. - This book explores simultaneous trilingual siblings code switching behavior focusing on their minority language development combined with a thorough examination of their minority language speaking parent s input. It explores their complex discourse in relationship to the key input, the minority language speaking parent s responses to the children s mixed utterances. This social-interactional and context-based perspective approach sheds new light on the fascinating facet of children s language manipulating ability. The book describes how the siblings build up a systematic method of inserting non-Korean words into the Korean language structure and argues code switching is an organic building block in a child s multilingual system and provides a picture of its developmental process.
