As long as grandmothers talk...: A sociolinguistic approach to bilingualism in an Almopian village
Abstract
First of all the author briefly describes the make-up of societal bi
lingualism of a rural settlement in Almopia He then examines the
phonetic components of the native local accent, paying particular at
tention to the semiotic use of the accent of this multi-lingual area
(recognition between speakers and stylistic interplay in speech).
Finally, this brief description ends with a series of hypothesis about
the maintenance of the local language up today.
