It covers the whole range of the border, from French Flanders through South Tirol. Every part of it has been treated by outstanding experts. They describe the current state of the art in ‘their' portion of the language border and include information on the legal and/or practical status of the language border and the status and function of all languages concerned. Attitudinal and language planning initiatives as well as the standardisation status of the regionally official and minority languages are discussed. Language borrowing, code switching and other language contact phenomena are analysed in detail.Languages in contactEuropeRomance languagesSocial aspectsGermanic languagesSocial aspectsLanguages in contactRomance languagesSocial aspects.Germanic languagesSocial aspects.306.44/094Treffers-Daller Jeanine1959-1534277Willemyns Roland1534278MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910780149203321Language contact at Romance-Germanic language border3781676UNINA
