Transmission d’une langue minoritaire: les pratiques langagières des jeunes de la troisième génération en Suisse
Chantal Wyssmüller & Rosita Fibbi
Abstract |
This article deals with the transmission of migrants’ language of
origin, both as a repertory and an identity marker. The text is
based on a study of grandchildren of immigrants of Italian and
Spanish origin, the two groups whose settlement in Switzerland is
old enough to have a grown-up third generation. It describes
language usages of those potentially bilingual teenagers and the
sense that such bilingual practices have in their urban
environment. The study identifies also the factors influencing such
practices, especially the investment of grandparents in the
transmission. |
