More about the book

The study analyzes the Croatian speech of 100 bilingual adults in Melbourne, focusing on the incorporation of English words and structures into their Croatian. It compares these English-origin forms to contemporary models of code-switching and highlights grammatical deviations from standard Croatian. The findings suggest potential impacts of contact-induced language change, making this work a significant contribution to the understanding of code-switching and the dynamics of languages in contact.
