More structured cooperation began with a small workshop at the University of Wisconsin-Madison four years ago and continued with larger workshops sponsored in turn by the University of Oslo, Pennsylvania State University and the University of Iceland. The volume you're reading is the first group publication in English (though see Johannessen and Salmons 2012 for a collection of papers on and written in Norwegian), and several others are in preparation. Most of the papers included in this volume have grown from the ongoing set of international workshops just sketched. These were started by the co-editors, led initially by the first co-editor, a trajectory reflected in the relatively heavy representation of work on Norwegian. A number of the chapters have been developed specifically from these networks and ongoing dialogues about heritage languages"--Introduction. 311 08$aPrint version: 9789027234988 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 330 2 $aThis book presents new empirical findings about Germanic heritage varieties spoken in North America: Dutch, German, Pennsylvania Dutch, Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish, West Frisian and Yiddish, and varieties of English spoken both by heritage speakers and in communities after language shift. The volume focuses on three critical issues underlying the notion of 'heritage language': acquisition, attrition and change. The book offers theoretically-informed discussions of heritage language processes across phonetics and phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics and the lexicon, in addition to work on sociolinguistics, historical linguistics and contact settings. With this, the volume also includes a variety of frameworks and approaches, synchronic and diachronic. Most European Germanic languages share some central linguistic features, such as V2, gender and agreement in the nominal system, and verb inflection. As minority language faced with a majority language like English, similarities and differences emerge in patterns of variation and change in these heritage languages. These empirical findings shed new light on mechanisms and processes --$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aStudies in language variation ;$vvolume 18. 606 $aGermanic languages$zNorth America$xHistory$vCongresses 606 $aLanguages in contact$zNorth America$vCongresses 606 $aLanguage acquisition$zNorth America$vCongresses 606 $aGermanic languages$xInfluence on English$vCongresses 606 $aEnglish language$xInfluence on Germanic$vCongresses 606 $aBilingualism$zNorth America$vCongresses 610 $aSociolinguistics 610 $aLanguage change 610 $aGermanic linguistics 610 $aLanguage variation 615 0$aGermanic languages$xHistory 615 0$aLanguages in contact 615 0$aLanguage acquisition 615 0$aGermanic languages$xInfluence on English 615 0$aEnglish language$xInfluence on Germanic 615 0$aBilingualism 676 $a430.097 700 $aJanne Bondi Johannessen$4auth$0167437 702 $aJohannessen$b Janne Bondi 702 $aSalmons$b Joe$f1956- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910131575303321 996 $aGermanic heritage languages in North America$93390567 997 $aUNINA
