Code-switching is the practice of alternating between two or more languages or language varieties within a conversation or discourse. It is a natural phenomenon that occurs when multilingual individuals or communities use different languages or dialects, either in a deliberate or unconscious manner, depending on the context or the interlocutors involved. Code-switching can happen at various linguistic levels, including individual words, phrases, or entire sentences. It is often observed in bilingual or multilingual societies, where individuals have the ability to communicate effectively in multiple languages. Code-switching can serve various purposes, such as accommodating to the interlocutor, expressing cultural or social identity, emphasizing a certain point, or simply due to linguistic convenience. read less
