   Thanks in advance.

Inke Du Bois, University of Bremen, University of Hamburg
dubois@...

With a corpus of almost 200000 words in 30 interviews with Americans
living in Germany from two to forty years, I look at how Americans
construct their cultural identities through bilingual language use. In
a discourse analysis, the bicultural American and German
identification will be ascertained. The bicultural identity is
partially constructed through the simultaneous use of English and
German in their speech.

A further triangulation of qualitative and quantitative analyses sheds
light on the overall bilingual language use of the participants.
Questions of how do different ethnographic factors (age at emigration,
length of residence, gender, amount of contact with other Americans
and English speakers, etc.) influence the interviewees' identity
construction and multilingual language use, will be answered.

The corpus of spoken data was imported into a qualitative data
analysis software in which all instances of lexical borrowing,
semantic transfer and code-switching were counted. The instances were
then correlated with the informants' extralinguistic demographic
factors to provide a holistic analysis of multilingual data. The
combination of  qualitative and quantitative findings gives new
insights into language use of German-English bilinguals.
(This is an ongoing Phd project)

Dear forum members,

since I unexpectedly got many question regarding the software and the
models, I thought it would be best to post it here.

The software is called MAXQDA and there exists a free trial version
for 30 days(your analyses will not be lost after the period, you will
just not be able to access it).
In this software, you can code all instances of code switching or
other linguistic phenomena in the data. I decided to do that so I can
have an overall picture on who code switches what how often.
You can export it into statistical programs, it does not do the
statistics for you, it only counts and relates your codings.
http://www.maxqda.com/maxqda-eng/index.htm

I am looking at structural (MLF model- Myers-Scotton)- language
attrition and functional- identity related aspects as well, but I am
still in the process of doing so.

I am grateful for any suggestions on the latest related research on
autobiographical bilingual and monolingual identity construction.
Best,
Inke

I am currently working on my thesis on written code switching.
Materials for this type of code switching are hard to find because as
far as I know it has not been fully discussed by the experts. I hope
there's someone out there who could possibly direct me to the nearest
possible model which I could use for my research.

Thanks.

am student at British Open University, majorin english literature, and am doin a
project about 5000 words, concerns on a grammatical and linguistic comparison
between men’s language and women’s language, in terms of their own and distinct
linguistic features, styles, conventions, functions and stereotypes, that is;

   -         Can a language be sexist? How that can be done? And why some people
refuse this idea and try to avoid it?

   -         Do men and women speak substantially differently at all? And how do
they do so?

   -         What kind of grammatical and linguistic stereotypes, styles,
conventions and features, which distinguish and differentiate between men’s
language and women’s one?

   -         What makes each gender has its own linguistic features and speaking
style?

   -         Is there any relationship between the language differences between
genders, and the status and power relations between men and women in general?

   Any helpful links, softwares, corpus or websites?

Hi,

   That's a very interesting topic. i've done something similar. For a corpus,
you can record talk shows as i did on Tv, and analyze (if you have patience),
there definitely are words that only men or women can say. Can you have the
corpus in your mother tongue, cause i'm sure in arabic there are differences but
not sure about English. Just curious, where is the British open university?

   Thanks

   -         What makes each gender has its own linguistic features and speaking

   -         Is there any relationship between the language differences between

   Any helpful links, softwares, corpus or websites?

There are a few theoretical texts you may find interesting - try
looking for Robin Lakoff or Deborah Tannen.  The talk shows idea is a
great one, you might also want to look at advertising or commercials.
It would be interesting to examine gender based language within the
'status and power' dimension you mentioned.
Good luck

hi,
i'm working on code switching of English and
Meiteilon(a tibeto burman lg spoken in Manipur, India
and i have taken Myers-Scotten's Matrix Model as the
framework for the same. i'm not particularly looking
at written code switching. However, i would like to
know more about it. i would also like to know if there
are certain models or frameworks for written code
switching ( can't it be dealt with , for example,
Matrix Model? just wondering). I would be thankful if
anybody can give some references.

Dear Forum members,

is there any information about differences between women and men in
the preference for alternational type vs. insertional type of code-
mixing (Muysken)?

I have conducted a questionnaire research recently about the use of
Slovak and Czech by Slovaks in the Czech Republic, Europe. Answers
which were offered to the respondents allowed them to choose between
the two types of code-mixing. The results showed that men self-
reported the use of insertional type of code-mixing more often then
women, or, to put it the other way round, that women self-reported
the use of insertional code-mixing less often than men.

We had found earlier that it was normative or 'correct' not to mix
(esp. non-functionally) the two languages (Czech and Slovak) in
public. I wonder if this be interrelated with the self-reported
dispreference for insertions in women-respondents, although Klann-
Delius (in her review of the language-and-gender issue
in 'Sociolinguistics/Soziolinguistik', 2004) does not confirm that
women in western societies use 'correct' language forms more than
men.

Best,
Marian

It is always important to treat information from questionnaires as a
matter of ideology,
to be definitely separated from information from observation.

We have known since Gumperz' work in Norway that people are surprised
when they hear tapes of their natural conversation.
Most people report insertional is OK because they experience
occasional gaps in their lexical repertoire and they use insertion as
a backup in
such cases.  But everyone finds code-switching between fluent bilinguals is
often unconscious.

As to gender differences, whatever is "correct" might effect questionnaire
responses, and as you say that may differ.  On the other hand, if women are
more responsive to interlocutors they might do more accommodative switching
without being aware that they do.
