Аннотация:
Code-switching is a linguistic phenomenon in which speakers alternate between two or more languages within a single conversation. It is not merely a straightforward practice but a complex, dynamic process involving linguistic, cognitive, and cultural dimensions. During code-switching, not only do linguistic patterns shift, but speakers may also experience a change in cultural identity. This practice occurs across diverse contexts, including social media, everyday conversation, and professional environments. This article examines the significance of code-switching, highlighting its benefits, potential drawbacks, and its role in maintaining cultural identities in multilingual communication.
