A half century of inquiry and discussion on American immigrant groups has given currency to a handful of such concepts as ‘Anglo-conformity’, ‘cultural pluralism’, ‘the third generation interest’, ’behavioural assimilation’ and ‘structural assimilation’. This essay attempts to take another look at ethnic identification and ethnic continuity in the United States in the hope that this meagre arsenal of commonly accepted formulations can be enriched. Its vantage point will be a recently completed study of language maintenance among immigrant groups in which several topics in the sociology of language were explored at the nationwide, community and family levels of analysis.1
