Complexities of Simplification in Language Revitalization
How can an anthropologist usefully contribute to the revitalization of a “dormant” language? This article considers simplification as an inherent, virtually inevitable aspect of language revitalization and as one that is by no means simple. A linguistic anthropologist’s understanding of the complexities of simplification, I suggest, can be the basis for valuable contributions to community-based language-revitalization efforts, particularly when t…
Creole and Creolization
Creole languages are the products of sustained social contact and intensive interaction, occurring within a relatively narrow historical timeframe, among speakers of multiple previously existing languages who initially had no language in common. Creolization is the multidimensional process through which a creole language takes form and becomes established within a community of speakers, typically becoming a native language and language of ethnic …
Language Socialization
Language socialization is the developmental process through which a child or other novice (of any age, such as an adult immigrant) acquires the ability to use language and other communicative resources in culturally appropriate and socially effective ways. Language socialization researchers study the ways in which novices learn to use language and other communicative resources in the culturally specific ways that enable them to participate meanin…
Norms in Language and Communication
Norms are as essential to communication as language itself – so much so that any basic definition of language or communication must take norms fully into account. Some norms, such as those formulated as linguistic taboos, are explicit, but most are implicit, firmly but flexibly guiding virtually all aspects of everyday language use while remaining outside of speakers' awareness. Violation of norms tends to make them more readily discernible and o…
A Note from the Editors
Say It Like You See It
This article examines the role of Caribbean creole languages in the imagining and “mass mediating” of postcolonial nationhood. The focus is radio broadcasting in St. Lucia, where an Afro-French creole language known as Kwéyòl coexists with the official language, English. Since St. Lucia's independence in 1979, Kwéyòl has been used increasingly on the airwaves (formerly the exclusive domain of English) by broadcasters intent on rapidly “modernizin…

What a language is good for
In many bilingual and multilingual communities, certain communicative practices are code-specific in that they conventionally require, and are constituted in part through, the speaker's use of a particular code. Code-specific communicative practices, in turn, simultaneously constitute and partake of code-specific genres : normative, relatively stable, often metapragmatically salient types of utterance, or modes of discourse, that conventionally c…
Language Socialization
While continuing to uphold the major aims set out in the first generation of language socialization studies, recent research examines the particularities of language socialization processes as they unfold in institutional contexts and in a wide variety of linguistically and culturally heterogeneous settings characterized by bilingualism, multilingualism, code-switching, language shift, syncretism, and other phenomena associated with contact betwe…
